MTB Exams (Music Teachers' Board) is fast becoming recognised as a key player in the graded exams market, with their practical exams being very well received by pupils and teachers. Interactive Music Theory is a new product, offering digital theory courses and exams from Foundation to Grade 5, with Grades 6 to 8 due later this year. The offer seems to be pitched mainly at classroom settings, but I think that peripatetic teachers would also find it useful in one-to-one teaching.

MTB's Grade 5 theory is recognised by ABRSM as an alternative prerequisite to reach the higher instrumental grades, and it seems much more pupil-friendly than other options. Put this together with Ofqual's accreditation and some competitive pricing, and MTB's competitors will need to think about raising their game.
