TEACHING NOTES
The first thing to notice is the time signature. It should be felt as two beats in a bar not 4 so that the tempo does not drag

An accent should fall on the first note of every 2nd bar in the outer sections (e.g. bars 2, 4, 6, 8 timestamps - 0:06 0:12 etc)

Notice the subtle differences in dynamics to evoke a call and response trumpet fanfare and be particularly careful the the final section starts ff, louder than the beginning (0:28)

If your hands are not big enough, you can omit the octave C (marked in brackets in the ABRSM edition) for the exam, although adding the octave if possible without causing problems, will add a richness to the tone.
