Our Curriculum Intent- Music

In our school, the music curriculum exposes children to a variety of music experiences, through which we aim to build up the confidence of every child. Children are taught to listen to and respond to a range of musical experiences and develop a life-long love and appreciation of different musical forms. We teach them core skills to compose, perform and evaluate their own musical sequences.

Music Around Our School

'Music is all around us. It is the soundtrack to our lives. Music connects us through people and places in our ever-changing world. It is creative, collaborative, celebratory and challenging. In our schools, music can bring communities together through the shared endeavour of whole-school singing, ensemble playing, experimenting with the creative process and, through the love of listening to friends and fellow pupils, performing. The sheer joy of music making can feed the soul of a school community, enriching each student while strengthening the shared bonds of support and trust which make a great school.'

Music in Action

During our whole school assemblies children will get the opportunities to listen and appraise music from a wide range of musical genre's. 

Each half term children will learn to sing a variety of songs helping to develop their singing abilities whilst improving and widening their vocabulary. 

Take a look at some of the genre's we will be covering this year.
