To enable continuous student assessment, their performance is evaluated using an assessment rubric. The rubric sets out the aspects of the musical performance to be assessed. The most important assessments are the concerts and the final rehearsals before a concert. The concert dates are announced at the start of the academic year. If singers are absent from the dress rehearsals, they will not be permitted to take part in the concerts. Absence from any concert (also those as part of the excursion) will require them to retake the examination.
