MUSIC
Music is at the centre of what we believe and what we do!
Music Progression
Our Guiding Principle
​
Our young musicians will be confidently performing, creatively composing, critically listening to, analysing and appreciating a wide range of music from different cultures, eras and genres
Learning through doing
​
-
In our school our music lessons focus on active participation, learning through doing, and through this we learn more about how we feel and our personal contribution to the overall ensemble.
-
We develop good communication skills, linked with challenging musical vocabulary, to describe the music we create and the music we listen to.
-
Music making helps our children to develop a positive self-esteem and everyone learns to value the personal contribution they make to our school life and wider community.
