The world's only accredited pop and rock music examination board.
Rockschool's Band Based Keys syllabus is a truly engaging attempt to make learning keyboard music come alive, and it really delivers. It's amazing that it is not better known. Students work with great sounding tracks that their teachers can also enjoy, and with just a few good sounds on your keyboard, you may find you are having so much fun that you don't want to stop.
A key aspect of Rockschool is Accreditation. Rockschool as a body have long grasped the importance of this, which has made them good at producing syllabi which are not only fun to learn from, but importantly will count towards your future. Each level is allocated QCF credit, ranging from 4 at Debut level to 18 at Grade 5.
With Band Based Keys, students find themselves playing keyboard right at the heart of the band, which just feels right. The ability to play realistic parts while interacting with other musicians is invaluable training in itself and a feature that isn’t known to be available in any other syllabus. The pieces also recognisably vary in musical style, giving students greater freedom of choice.
