HOW WILL IT BE ASSESSED?\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pupils peer and self assess throughout the course<\/p>\n

Performing Skills
\n<\/em><\/strong>Throughout S3 and S4 we will assess performances on each instrument.<\/p>\n

In February\/March of S4, an external examiner will assess Nat 5 pupils and this contributes to 50% of the overall mark.\u00a0 National\u00a05 pieces must be at least\u00a0Grade\u00a03 standard. National 4 pupils are internally assessed and their pieces must be at least Grade 2 standard.<\/p>\n

Understanding Music
\n<\/em><\/strong>Over the course of S3 and S4 the pupils will complete end of topic listening papers in the style of the final listening exam.\u00a0 These help the students get accustomed with exam questions.<\/p>\n

In May of S4 they complete the listening paper which is 35% of the final overall mark.<\/p>\n

Composing Skills
\n<\/em><\/strong>This is continually developed and assessed throughout S3 and S4. The final S4 composition is assessed by SQA and is worth 15% of the final overall mark.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
