Required Prior LearningEntry is subject to approval by HOD and dependent on proven performance in Year 10 (or equivalent study). All students studying L1MUSC must learn a musical instrument or voice for the year, either privately or through the school-run Itinerant Music programme. Participation in Ōtūmoetai College Music groups is strongly recommended.
This course provides students with a comprehensive programme developing the student as a holistic musician.
Students will perform in both solo and group contexts, compose music, develop listening and score reading skills, and study local and global music works and their contexts. Many elements of this course will incorporate Music and Sound technology.
Students will be assessed to a selection of Music Achievement Standards. Assessment is a combination of both internally and externally assessed standards.
