Music
Intent
Our music curriculum aims to develop a lasting love of music and to increase pupils’ self‑confidence and creativity. Pupils regularly listen to, perform and appraise music from a wide range of genres and traditions, and have opportunities to sing, play instruments, compose and use music technology so they build skills and vocabulary progressively from Reception to Year 6.
Implementation
The curriculum is planned in well-sequenced, progressive lessons. The children are taught in blocks to immerse them in their learning to enable them to know more and remember more. We use units of work from Charanga to support our music curriculum.
​
Impact
At Pinfold Street, the impact of our music curriculum can be seen when our pupils are engaged and excited by our music curriculum. They are equipped with a range of skills to enable them to appreciate music throughout their lives. Pupils will have become confident performers, composers and listeners, who are able to express themselves musically. Pupils show an appreciation and respect for a range of music from a variety of genres across a variety of generations. Our pupils demonstrate and express their enthusiasm for music.
