National Qualifications

Framework for Music

ABRSM and TCL graded exams have now been embraced by NQF and discussions are being held with UCAS to establish points for graded exams in the scores used for admissions to UK universities.
In summary, the picture is as follows:
• NQF Level 1 (Foundation) embraces Grades 1 - 3, GCSE Grades D - G.
• NQF Level 2 (Intermediate) embraces Grades 4 - 5, GCSE Grades A* - C.
NQF Level 3 (Advanced) embraces Grades 6 - 8, A Level.
These are not all necessarily 'equal', but they are seen to share some broad equivalence(!)
