    Application Information

Applications for 2015 close 15th June 2014

To obtain an application form please email:

conservat-h.school@det.nsw.edu.au

-------------
APPLICATION FORM

This form is only available from the Conservatorium High School. Requests for an application form should be directed to Mrs Christine Whiting, Assistant Manager (Music Program), Conservatorium High School, PO Box R-1805, Royal Exchange, NSW 1225. Tel: +61 2 9351 1351 christine.whiting@det.nsw.edu.au

Year 7 Applicants

In addition to filling out the above Application Form students who are applying for Year 7 entry to the Conservatorium High will need to have sat the NSW Selective High School Placement Test in the previous year, i.e., Year 6. This Test, specifically designed for children in their final year of primary school, is conducted in various centres around the State each year. Most children are registered by their parents for this Test at the end of Year 5 through their local primary school. The Application Package for Year 7 Entry to Selective High Schools is available from NSW public schools and regional school education offices. Once the application has been processed, parents are advised of the location of the test centre for their child by the Department of Education and Communities.

Year 8 Applicants

Applicants for Year 8 entry who sat the NSW Selective High School Placement Test in Year 6 of primary school should be sure to provide this information as requested on the school's Application Form. In so doing they are authorising the school to request the relevant test score data from the Department of Education and Communities. These data remain valid for only two years; they constitute an essential component of the application process.

Years 9-11 Applicants and

Years 7-8 Applicants Who Did Not Sit the NSW Selective High School Placement Test

Applicants for Years 9-11 and applicants for Years 7 & 8 who did not sit the NSW Selective High School Placement Test are required to present the results of a WISC-IV test. The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children (4th ed., 2002) is administered by school counsellors, private testing companies and educational psychologists.

Parents should ensure that results of their child’s WISC-IV test are made available to the school for inclusion with other application materials well before the end of the relevant audition period. Applications that are missing these data, i.e., Selective School test result or WISC-IV, will be deemed to be incomplete and not considered by the Placement Panel in the current round.

ACADEMIC COURSES

Board of Studies Courses offered in Years 7 – 10:

English, Music, Mandarin [mandatory language 100 hours for Year 7]

Many and varied are the factors that bear upon what subjects can be offered in any given year, for example, the number of students requesting it, exigencies of timetabling, staff availability, etc.

In certain circumstances, with Principal’s approval students may study subjects not offered at the school through the Department’s Open High School/Distance Education unit.

4个中学志愿，如果考虑Conservatorium High School，是不是也要填这个学校？放第四就可以？

往年的考试录取分大约是多少？

资料太少，知道的来聊聊吧。

多谢。

Della

也想知道。小儿子中学想去这里，不过听说cello至少要6级，钢琴更高，至少8级才有可能上。

我一直以为这个学校不属于精英中学范畴。

学校网站上应该有解释吧

这是类似音乐学院的高中吗？

是的，悉尼唯一也是著名的一所。

zjrlisa

他家网站上提到要参加考试，但没提到要不要报在志愿里。好像是6年级第三学期才报名，然后还有audition决定是否录取。可我从来没见过他家的录取考试最低分。

ENTRY CRITERIA

The process of appraising applicants’ suitability for the Conservatorium High is informed by the Department’s policy on gifted and talented education [PD/2004/0051/V03]. It draws on a mix of objective and subjective assessments, data that is derived from auditions, workshops, school reports and academic tests. See especially §6.4 at http://www.curriculumsupport.edu ... sets/pdf/polimp.pdf,

After all the requisite data has been collated, a list of recommended candidates together with supporting documentation is presented to the school's Placement Panel for its consideration. Successful candidates and their parents are invited to an interview with the Principal (or nominee) to formally receive the Offer of Placement and to discuss their child’s academic and musical aspirations and the educational opportunities which this school can afford their child.

There is one application round each year. It takes place in Term 3. Students who envisage applying for entry into Year 7 should ensure they sit the NSW Selective High School Placement Test or are able to provide the results of a current WISC-IV test [Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, 4th ed., 2004]. The whole assessment and appraisal process, involving as it does both High School and Sydney University staff, is lengthy and exhaustive; from audition to placement decision can take up to six weeks.

AUDITION

Instrumental applicants audition on instruments that are currently taught in the Conservatorium of Music. Applicants for Yr 11 entry who want Composition or Musicology to be considered their Major (primary area) must present a portfolio of original compositions and arrangements, or a portfolio of substantial musicological &/or analytical essays, in addition to auditioning on an instrument or voice.

    Keyboard piano, harpsichord, pipe organ.
    Strings violin, viola, violoncello, double bass, harp, Guitar
    Woodwind flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon, saxophone
    Brass French horn, trumpet, trombone, tuba
    Percussion timpani and percussion
    Voice
    Composition
    Jazz Studies

In order to maintain viable ensembles, the school may give priority to certain instruments. Which instruments are deemed to be priority instruments can vary from year to year.  Students who play more than one of the above instruments are encouraged to consider registering to audition on both.

At audition applicants should be ready to play three stylistically contrasting pieces. They might also be asked to play some technical work like scales and arpeggios. It is highly desirable that one or more of the pieces be performed from memory. A movement of a multi-movement composition can serve as one piece.The audition panel might ask to hear only part of a piece depending on time restrictions.

    Sight-reading and aural acuity will be tested at the audition.
    Applicants should bring to the audition a list of recently studied repertoire.
    The audition panel is looking for musical attributes, for candidates whose musicianship is characterised by the following qualities:
               
        Focus and concentration
        Control and accuracy
        Expressiveness and sensitivity
        Interpretive insight and imagination
        Projection and flair

多谢。  我的理解也是6年级第三学期交他家的报名表和其他资料，然后等着音乐测试。

MM知道大约的考试分数线吗？ 210左右是不是就有机会进入下一步的专业测评？

好像听说他们真的主要是看孩子音乐方面的潜质，多过音乐考级的结果什么的。精英的结果也是参考。个人的估计是，210分如果音乐潜质符合他们的要求的话应该是没问题的。

LZ 的儿子听起来音乐潜质是足够，210分应该也不止。如果想报应该只是愿不愿意的问题吧

音乐潜质不好说。　正在尽量培养各方面的爱好，将来不要成为一个无聊的人；希望他成为一个有生活，有乐趣的人。

了解了成绩只是参考。希望孩子好好学习，考上喜欢的学校。也希望音乐高中能成为孩子幸福的纠结。　

如果中学的纠结能成为孩子成长路上第一个作决定的机会，我觉得很不错呢：孩子可以从中慢慢学会取舍。

你孩子肯定行。

这又是一个可以在中学６年继续申请的学校。机会不是只有一次，只要努力，总有希望。

个人感觉进了这个学校，基本是朝着音乐专业方向去了。

对于这间学校的学生来说，音乐是第一，文化课程第二。 但是总的来说比大多数公立学校要好，与三流精英媲美。

选拔主要是根据学生的音乐素养，说白了就是去表演给老师听，老师觉得好就行，和考级关系不大，毕竟去报考的都是有两下子的。其中不乏出生音乐世家，从小homeschool, 就向着音乐专业发展的学生。

innerwest

该校网站说2012年HSC排名第11名，作为一个非academically selective学校, 相当不错了。

学音乐到专业程度需要极大的自制力和毅力，不是一般的小孩可以做得到的。

虽然Con High很多学生到大学去学了别的专业，但是专业的音乐训练也让他们多了一条路。万一哪天失业或者生孩子休息了，还可以教琴为生。

试试呗，至少请专业人生把把脉。
而且，和很多同学想得不一样，录取标准并不以考级进程论高下。
我们朋友的女儿钢琴考到五级，面试弹了首七级的曲子;黑管考了三级，面试吹了五级的曲子，就录取了。而且她考得不是六升七，而是七升八

感觉是于黄氏，大家都以为它是搞音乐的，其实是搞学术的。

要参加。几分不知道，他家好像从来没有公开的分数线。估计是音乐才能方面的权重也很大，所以分数线不存在，而是一个分数区间。
