Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Grades (pages 73, 76 and 78 respectively)
The first paragraph under the heading ‘Section II. Studies and Pieces’ in each of these three grades reads: ‘Candidates must prepare three works, one from each of Lists A, B and C, for presentation at examination’.
This text is incorrect and should read as in the previous (2010) Manual of Syllabuses: ‘Candidates must prepare four works, one from each of Lists A, B, C and D, for presentation at examination’.
