BAD EXAMPLE: Explain why it is important
that Health & Safety check a venue
Dont use words such as everything or
things and explain what you mean
(because) by giving examples
(by)
GOOD EXAMPLE: Explain why it is
important that Health & Safety check a
venue
BY (how) ensuring that electrical equipment is safe;
that there is clean water available and toilets are
hygienic; that obstacles are will let and taped; there
is crowd control; security at gates.
This is BECAUSE (why) H&S protects the health,
safety and welfare of the general public, the
employees of the venue and the performers. They
operate alongside civil law, which means that if not
done properly the venue management could be sued.
IMPLICATION: The conclusion that can
be drawn from something
You must DRAW CONCLUSIONS from
the statement/question that is given.
= What would happen if? : Discuss the
implications of Vocalise buying into a
tour. = What would happen if Vocalise
bought into a tour.


DEFINE: Vocalise is a local choir. Buying into a tour is when a musician or
band pays a fee in exchange for being the opening act on a tour
PROS:
- buying an audience & greater exposure for Vocalise
- the tour is organised already: no need to contact venues managers or
promoters.
- quicker way to access larger venues for Vocalise
CONS:
- will be very expensive and Vocalise could make a loss
- the audience is not targeted specifically for Vocalise, and therefore the
tour may not be successful
- without prior experience the singers may not be ready for such a large
venue.
CONCLUSION:
Whilst buying into a tour seems like an easy option for Vocalise to gain
exposure, the cost could be prohibitive and it may not benefit the choir as
the tour will not be catered to their music. Therefore, it would be better
for Vocalise not to buy into a tour, and instead gain experience by
performing in local venues, gradually working their way up the music
industry.

Keep an eye on the time
Answer the question: Make sure you read and re-read the
question thoroughly and keep to the question
You could do the easiest questions first and dont get stuck:
move on and come back later
Look at the marking scheme: if there are 4 marks, then
there are probably 4 key points
Take a bottle of water: it helps refresh the brain & settle
nerves
Use common sense: imagine you are in the scenario what
would you do?
