Trinity Music Examinations by Mario Maxwell Muller, Head of Music Dept.

The music programme at Pathways Noida allows learners to express themselves through using music as medium. The music curriculum encourages learners to be creative and investigate several composers, explore different rhythms and foster an appreciation for music. The ideologies of the IB learner profile allow learners to be risk takers. The challenging task is to prepare for external examinations where their competencies and skills are tested and assessed by examiners from England. This year Pathways Noida achieved excellent results for their Trinity Music Examinations. All learners had to prepare themselves adequately for being able to sight read, perform three songs from different categories and complete aural tests where their theory abilities were assessed. To be effective communicators our learners are taught to be confident when they perform.  Massive congratulations to the following students from both Primary and Secondary School:

Farid Arora for achieving a Distinction for Violin Grade Initial
Prisha Sehgal for achieving a Merit for Singing Grade 1
