GCSE (2016) Music

We are continuing to develop support and exemplar material for the new GCSE specification.

There are now model student answers for both the SAMs and the specimen paper plus exemplars of marked composing work.

Performing exemplars are coming very soon as well as lists of timings for the extracts used in the SAMs and specimen papers.

I have produced some ideas for further wider listening, linking to each of the set works, that could be used in your teaching of the specification. 

Visit the news pages to see further wider listening ideas.
