Syllabus Review Process
The AMEB Syllabus Review Process is a consultative approach to syllabus development. We seek input from teachers, examiners, students and parents. Consequently, a new syllabus takes time to develop.
The following syllabuses are undergoing a period of review:
Classical Guitar
Double Bass
Flute
Percussion
Alterations to Syllabuses - Changes to Folk Tunes or Memory Questions
There have been alterations made to this area of Musicianship and Theory of Music. Sample questions similar to those that may be encountered in examinations are available here - Sample Questions
Double Bass Consultation
The AMEB will be holding two public consultations on the Double Bass syllabus during 2010/2011.
Please note that the consultations are scheduled to be held during the following time periods:
Public Consultation 2
Projected time period: 16 December 2010 - 12 January 2011
Confimation of dates and arrangements for accessing the consultations will be available closer to the times.
