In Principal Music Studios 6, you will continue your practical music studies in one instrument, voice or composition, focusing on advanced level repertoire and technical work. These practical studies will be underpinned by your ability to demonstrate personal and professional skills necessary for your profession, such as punctuality and preparedness for each of your lessons, consistent attendance and thorough personal practice, and a mature response to direction. You are expected to demonstrate cumulative levels of skill and knowledge through this series of units.

Assessment Overview
Assessment Grading
This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of ‘pass’ in order to pass the unit. If any ‘pass/fail’ tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully (‘pass’ grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the ‘assessment task’ section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%).
