Intent
To engage and inspire pupils to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians, and so increase self-confidence, creativity and a sense of achievement.
Unit Pathway
The document below shows a planned teaching sequence that a unit of Music lessons may follow in order to promote the sequential and progressive development of knowledge which can be securely demonstrated by our pupils.
Lesson Pathway
The document below identifies the key elements which we believe are important to incorporate into our Music lessons in order for them to build on previously taught knowledge and also to deepen and secure key concepts.
Our Progressive Music Curriculum
Our Early Years Children are taught music through their Development Matters Curriculum.
To ensure children, from Year 1 to Year 4, are taught and remember the appropriate knowledge and skills relating to Music we have created a whole school progressive breakdown of the national curriculum expectations, this draws on the skills and knowledge being taught across all subject areas and hopes to contribute to the development of key concepts and themes in a deep and connected way.
Subject Specific Vocabulary
Our Music curriculum will ensure all children are not only taught subject specific vocabulary but also provide opportunities for them to use such language within the correct context with confidence and fluency.
