ABRSM
ABRSM is The Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music and a global music education charity. At the heart of everything we do is our belief that music enriches lives. Building on our heritage, we offer face-to-face and digital exams, sheet music, recordings, apps and courses for students and teachers across the world. In partnership with four Royal Schools of Music, we carry on a long legacy of musical excellence. We support learners from the first note they play, and empower teachers who help build musical skills and encourage progress around the world. As a charity, we use all of the surpluses we generate to make significant donations towards music education initiatives and to develop our support for learners and teachers around the world. We advocate for music in its many forms, playing our part to ensure the future of music education and its place in society.
AQA
Since 1903, we’ve been rewarding achievement by designing and delivering fair and inclusive assessment. We do this because quality assessment is an essential ingredient for a good education.
We have relevant and contemporary GCSE and A-level music qualifications that offer your learners the chance to study a wide range of musical genres and bring theory, listening, performance and composition to life in engaging ways.
We know that every learner has different learning styles and musical tastes, which is why our qualifications value all music styles, skills and instruments. You can find out more at aqa.org.uk/music
Charanga
Over 70,000 teachers use Charanga’s online platform to help them teach music, and more than 2.5 million children in 64 countries enjoy a Charanga-supported music lesson every week.
We're perhaps best known for providing award-winning music curricula, technology, CPD and teacher training that, together, boost music in schools.
Our platform is entirely customisable, enabling teachers to create bespoke schemes of work, share projects with their students and upload their own teaching resources for use alongside ours.
We also have a 25-year history of partnership working with music hubs, services, national and state governments, and others to support their ambitions for change in music education.
