Everything your students need, Initial Grade to Grade 8, in one download.
If you've ever sat down with the syllabus late in the evening to check which scales are needed, how many bars of sight reading there are and what the aural tests involve, this is for you. I made these because I was doing exactly that, every year, for every exam student.
The first page brings all four parts of the exam together in one view: pieces, scales and arpeggios, sight reading and aural. Everything is laid out in clear sections with the keys, octaves, tempi and requirements specified, so you can see the whole exam at a glance without needing to continually refer back to the syllabus document. Initial Grade to Grade 5 fit on one page. Grades 6 to 8 run across two, because there is simply more to cover at those levels.
The final page belongs to the student. There's space for their chosen order of exam components and pieces, the exam date, time and venue, and a reminder to arrive ten minutes early. There's also a spot for the date of their practice exam (if applicable).
Print the sheet you need, hand it to the student, and both they and their parents can see exactly what's being worked towards. No translating, no explaining it twice.
Alongside the student summary sheets, the bundle now includes a teacher quick-reference version, designed to keep by the piano while you teach. Each grade from Initial to Grade 8 has its own page (two for Grades 6 to 8) showing the scales and arpeggios, sight-reading and aural requirements, the mark allocation and the exam length, so you can check exactly what’s needed during a lesson or mock exam without flipping back and forth through the full syllabus. The set pieces aren’t listed, so the guide stays current when the repertoire changes. Print it single-sided and keep it in a ring binder by the piano, so it’s always to hand when you need it.
What you get
Nine print-ready PDFs, one for every grade from Initial Grade to Grade 8
Initial Grade to Grade 5 on two sides, designed for double sided printing at A4; Grades 6 to 8 on three sides
All syllabus requirements set out clearly for teacher, student and parent
Space for chosen pieces, preferred exam running order, exam date, time and venue
Space for a practice exam date if needed
Teacher quick-reference PDF: one page per grade (two for Grades 6 to 8), with scales and arpeggios, sight-reading, aural, mark allocation, exam length at a glance and entry requirements for Grades 6 to 8.
Instant download
Print as often as you like for use within your own studio
Why the complete set
If you enter students across several grades, this saves you buying sheets one at a time in the week before entries close. Download it once, keep it in your studio folder, and every grade you teach is already covered. It also works out considerably cheaper than buying grades individually.
