School Music Development Plan Summary
'It has .. been proven that music plays a key role in brain development. This is because it helps with the nurturing of language, motor skills, emotional intelligence and collaboration skills.' Gov UK.
Our Music curriculum – delivered by Junior Jam – gives our children opportunities to think and act creatively, to express their emotions, to work collaboratively and to develop problem-solving skills that can be used in all areas of their learning and support the development of our 'Superskills'.
During their journey through school, children will learn and develop 3 core music skills - singing, songwriting and music theory. Their knowledge and expertise in these key areas will build year on year. In addition, they will learn the basics of a variety of different musical instruments e.g. Samba Drumming and Glockenspiels, ensuring they have an exciting, balanced musical curriculum.
Music is taught each week to Years 1-6 by our Junior Jam specialist music teacher, Mr Hannon.
We also offer instrumental lessons through Rock Steady.
