ABRSM Information

ABRSM is one of the UK’s leading music education organisations, one of its largest music publishers and the world’s market leader in the provision of, and the setting of the international standard in, music exams, with around 650,000 assessments in more than 90 countries every year. As a registered charity, we make significant contributions to four Royal Schools of Music - the Royal Academy of Music, the Royal College of Music, the Royal Northern College of Music and the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland and provide scholarships for their students. We also support a number of national youth ensembles in the UK and provide project support for music education initiatives around the world. Founded in 1889, we have a long and storied history stemming from our commitment to nurture a love for, and achievement in, music. In our 130th year we are committed to inspiring achievement in music through not only our assessments, but also through many and varied programmes of support to teachers and their students around the world. At ABRSM, we believe that everyone, regardless of background or circumstance, should be supported to realise their full musical potential.
