Piano.
Build confident technique, musical understanding, and expressive playing from your very first lesson. Students can follow an ABRSM or Trinity pathway when they are ready.
ABRSM + TRINITYWHAT STUDENTS LEARN
Skills that become music.
Lessons combine technique, listening, reading and repertoire. Teachers adjust the balance to suit the student’s age, experience and musical goals.
Read and listen
Staff notation, rhythm, sight-reading and a stronger musical ear.
Play with expression
Dynamics, articulation, phrasing and tone through varied repertoire.
Perform confidently
Preparation habits, memory, stage confidence and exam skills when appropriate.
A TYPICAL FIRST YEAR
One year, four clear stages.
This is a practical guide, not a fixed promise. Starting level, attendance, practice and individual readiness shape the exact pace.
Start strong
Keyboard geography, pulse, simple notation and short pieces with secure hand position.
Build fluency
Scales and patterns, two-hand coordination, sight-reading and contrasting pieces.
Make it musical
Musical detail, aural skills, technical work and a growing personal repertoire.
Share and progress
Polish selected pieces, perform for others and review readiness for a suitable grade.
EXAM PATHWAY
Progress with purpose.
We use current official syllabus information to guide exam preparation. The teacher recommends a board, grade and timeline after understanding the student’s level, goals and learning pace.
ABRSM pathway
