Musicianship Classes
All Junior students attend a weekly Musicianship class, to support learning and teaching in the Practical Lesson. Through these graded classes, students develop a range of core music skills including aural awareness, sight-singing, theoretical understanding, critical listening and appreciation of music.
The class duration varies according to the grade of study:
| Initial and Primary Grades | 30 mins |
| Grades 1–3 | 45 mins |
| Grades 4–5 | 1 hour |
| Grade 6 | 1 hour 15 mins |
| Grades 7–8 | 1 hour 30 mins |
Students are expected to complete weekly homework, which may take the form of written work, or practice (e.g. sight-singing, memory work etc.).
