HOW DOES THE COURSE WORK?
The course is largely practical with a focus on rehearsal, performance and research.
It is divided into 3 compulsory units of study known as ‘components’.
The course has two internally assessed components and one that is externally assessed.
Components 1 and 2 take place during Year 10 through which students develop their practical skills and knowledge of musical styles.
Component 3 gives students the opportunity to use their skills to create original music in response to a brief.
WHERE CAN THE COURSE LEAD?
With a BTEC Tech Award in Music, students are able to explore, challenge and realise their musical potential.
During the course, students can see whether the music industry is one they want to be in and gain the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in their next steps.
After completing the course, students can continue on to further vocational and academic study at level 2 and level 3, as well as apprenticeships and traineeships.
