ATAR Music - Your Questions Answered

As studio music teachers, helping our students prepare for ATAR music can be a daunting prospect.

We often hear questions such as:

• How do I best support my student through ATAR music?
• At what level should they play?
• What repertoire can they use?
• What is expected of me?
• Who will be grading them?
• Would a person who plays the violin grade my violinist?
• How should I communicate with their ATAR teachers?

Nick Fielding will be joining us for a 2 hour workshop to provide guidance on these questions and more.
