Manpreet,
You need to pass Grade 8 in an instrument before you are allowed to sit for the first of the diplomas, DipABRSM, for that instrument. In addition, if you are doing the DipABRSM in teaching, a mininum of Grade 6 theory is also required.

what abt Dip In teaching?

They have the same letters and the same ordering, it's just that the subject of the examination is teaching rather than performing.
