Music

As a school, we are proud of the vibrant and thriving performing arts which are celebrated in school assemblies, festivals and school shows. Curriculum Music is taught throughout the school, with a strong emphasis on singing and rhythm games throughout the Early Years and Key Stage 1, to develop language, coordination and social skills, as well as an understanding of rhythm. In addition, we welcome a team of peripatetic instrumental teachers into school, offering tuition in ukulele, violin, and clarinet to children in Key Stage 2. 

Our school has been awarded Music Mark Status, ‘in recognition of our commitment to providing high-quality music education for all children and young people.’

Music Development Plan

All schools are encouraged to have a music development plan, as set out in the national plan for music education.

Schools are asked to publish a summary of their music development plan on their website in order to:

• raise awareness of their music development plan
• promote the school music offer to parents and prospective parents
• give greater opportunity for schools and music hubs to work together

Our music development plan is attached below.
