Exam programme slips
Candidates now have the option of completing an Exam programme slip before going in to the exam room. Examiners and candidates have found this a quick and clear way of confirming the chosen pieces or songs and the order in which they will be performed. The exam programme slip is optional (except for singers, who are asked always to provide a note of their chosen songs).
