Summer 2021 Adaptations Update:
Summary of assessment sheets have been removed from this page as these adaptations were published prior to the Welsh Government’s announcement that there will be no summer exams for GCSE, AS and A level qualifications. The Design and Delivery Advisory Group is in the process of developing proposals on how externally set and marked assessments will be structured in 2021.

Our AS/A level Music specification offers a broad, flexible and coherent course of study which encourages learners to engage actively in the process of music study.
It provides learners with the opportunity to study music in an integrated way where the skills of performing, composing and appraising reinforce knowledge and understanding of musical elements, contexts and language.
