Grade Camp

Bass, Guitar, Drums & Voice

2nd - 6th August 27

“Do you take your musical journey seriously? Are you considering an academic pathway through the arts or possibly wanting a future career in music? Would you like to work alongside other focused learners, whilst networking with your peers? Maybe you need a music grade for college or university applications? If the answer to any of these questions is yes… then our Grade Camp community may well be for you. 

 

Join us every Summer for the exciting RSL Grade Camp, in association with Absolute Music and BAMM! Brought to you by Mike Relf (BAMM Tutor and RSL Examiner) and Sam Churches (Band Jam Supervisor and Music Teacher).  Experience high-quality tuition during an intensive week filled with individual lessons and collaborative group sessions (as well as additional time for practice), all aimed at helping you to achieve your next RSL grade. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your skills and prepare for your next musical journey!

 

Ideally, you will be working towards your next grade (3 or above in drums, guitar, bass or voice) and will take part in sessions including; 1-2-1 tuition, small group tuition, playing and rehearsing as a band and additional time for personal practice in our college facilities after the sessions. There is no pressure to take the video exam at the end of the course but the option is there for those that are ready when the time comes.

 

In 2026, we had massive success with a 100% Distinction rate for everyone that took part!

​

For the first four days of the camp (Monday-Thursday), learning sessions will be 10am - 1pm, and from 1-3pm there will be self-guided practice opportunities.  

 

There will then be video slots for those wishing to take their video grade exam on the Friday, with a huge communal jam and performance opportunities for everyone. 

 

The total Cost is just £375* for this fully inclusive grade-focused levelling up opportunity.
