Michael ElliottChief Executive

Welcome to ABRSM’s Annual Review for 2016-2017, a chance to take stock, assess progress and celebrate achievement.

If 2015 was a year of consulting and listening, reflecting and planning, then 2016 was very much a time to start putting plans into action. While we continued to build on the best of our heritage and experience, we also took steps towards energising our organisational culture, refreshing and reshaping our products and services, and developing our technical infrastructure. This entailed initiating a wide range of different but inter-connected projects, while ensuring high standards in our essential, ongoing activities.

Dame Colette BoweChairman

At the heart of everything we do at ABRSM is our aim – to inspire achievement in music. Our world-leading assessments and resources for teachers and students are, and always will be, a big part of this. But there is much more to do. We want to meet the needs of today’s music teachers and learners – and tomorrow’s. We want to promote the enormous benefits of musical participation and progression. And we want to support and inspire as many as we can of the people who want to get involved with music.

2016 was a year of tremendous activity and progress as we continued with an exciting programme of research and development. Although based very much on the principle of evolution not revolution, this has involved taking a careful and thorough look at the way we operate – what we do, how we do those things and also why we do them.

Providing a sense of continuity and a strong foundation for all this activity, is our longstanding partnership with four Royal Schools of Music: Royal Academy of Music, Royal College of Music, Royal Northern College of Music, Royal Conservatoire of Scotland. Each year we make a financial contribution to these world-class music conservatoires, as well as offering scholarships for their outstanding students. In 2016 our relationship with the Royal Schools was further strengthened as we began to develop a new joint identity as a ‘partnership of five’. The result? We have now begun to voice a collective vision for music education, one based on building new opportunities for all, to learn, create and embrace the transformative power of music.

In the spirit of this vision, 2016 saw growing collaboration with other organisations that value music and music education as we do. We also started to reach out to new groups of teachers and learners, and to take an increasingly active and varied role in a worldwide community whose common ground is a passion for music. It is our goal to serve and nurture that community by doing everything we can to inspire participation, progression and success in music. As a result of much hard work during 2016 we are closer to achieving that goal.

Section 1

During 2016 we implemented a range of internal changes to prepare to deliver our corporate goals and we prepared for the move to our new home in the City of London at 4 London Wall Place. Having this new office base has already made a big difference to the way staff work together, bringing a new sense of dynamism to everything we do.

There was much behind the scenes activity as we prepared for a major digital transformation project. The focus is on harnessing the best of technology so we can realise our ambitions, deliver outstanding experiences, increase musical opportunities and create new, connected musical communities. As a result of progress made in 2016, this project is now on track for implementation from 2017 onwards. It will have an enormous and positive impact on our ability to support music teaching and learning in new and exciting ways.

Innovation is something we have been building into our products and services for a number of years. Our suite of popular and award-winning learning apps continues to grow and in 2016 we released Scales Trainer for violinists and pianists, and a fully updated Piano Practice Partner app to encourage successful hands-separate practice.

We also launched products designed to inspire students at different stages in their musical development. Our performance-only diploma, ARSM, provides a new opportunity for any post-Grade 8 musician to work towards and gain a prestigious letter-bearing qualification. For those embarking on their musical journey we published refreshed piano and brass Prep Test books, and Piano Star, a set of fantastic illustrated books to guide young pianists through the early stages of learning.

Creating opportunities for more people to participate in music is certainly not something we can do alone. So in 2016 we continued to establish and nurture fruitful partnerships. We contributed to the BBC’s Get Playing project to form a virtual amateur orchestra, became Classic FM’s official Partner in Music Education and secured essential funding from Arts Council England for our forthcoming collaborative research project, The Music Commission. At the same time we continued, as always, to work with a range of smaller organisations in the UK and internationally, providing funding for youth choirs and orchestras, talented young musicians, schools, music education charities and much more.

This was my second year as ABRSM’s Chief Executive and it continues to be a privilege to lead this unique and highly successful organisation. It’s clear that this success relies on the passion, talent, expertise and dedication of the many people who work for and with ABRSM, and who we come into contact with on a daily basis in the world of music and music education. Together we can make a musical difference to the lives of many. My thanks to you all.
