The ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music) is an examinations board and registered charity based in London, UK, which provides examinations in music at centers around the world. ABRSM is one of four examination boards accredited by Ofqual to award graded exams and diploma qualifications in music within the UK's National Qualifications Framework (along with the London College of Music, Rockschool Ltd and Trinity College London). 'The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music' was established in 1889 and rebranded as ABRSM in 2009. The clarifying strapline "the exam board of the Royal Schools of Music" was introduced in 2012.
More than 600,000 candidates take ABRSM exams each year in over 93 countries. ABRSM also provides a publishing house for music which produces syllabus booklets, sheet music and exam papers and runs professional development courses and seminars for teachers.
We prepare our students for graded theory and practical exam. Graded music exams provide a structured framework for progression from beginner to advanced musician. Our students will sit exams this fall in Piano, Violin, Flute, Voice, Guitar, Cello Percussion and theory. This will expose our students to greater opportunities in the field of music and allow them to prepare for college scholarships.
The exams are from Prep-Test grades through 1 to 8 and ARSM, LRSM, FRSM, DipABRSM and Jazz studies. The students that sit the exams will prepare for opportunities for highest levels in the study of music.
ABRSM offers diplomas in three disciplines:
- Music Performance
- Music Direction
- Instrumental/Vocal teaching
For each discipline there are four levels of award:
- ARSM (Associate of the Royal Schools of Music)
- DipABRSM (Diploma of The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music)
- LRSM (Licentiate of the Royal Schools of Music)
- FRSM (Fellowship of the Royal Schools of Music)
