Our Curriculum
Music
The school aims to foster pupils' understanding, appreciation and
enjoyment of music through singing, instrumental playing, dance,
composing and active involvement in listening.
Music is taught throughout the school to develop a wide variety
of skills in order that children acquire a sense of enjoyment, confidence
and motivation to participate in musical activities.
Children have the opportunity to take part in extra-curricular activities
such as recorder groups for all levels. The school orchestra brings
together a variety of instruments to perform at concerts in school
and collectively with other schools. Children are also involved
in traditional maypole dancing, musical productions and instrumental
tuition, including guitar, flute, clarinet and saxaphone. Parents
in receipt of Income Support, Job Seekers Allowance, Working Families
Tax Credit or Disabled Persons Tax Credit may be entitled to a bursary
or subsidy from external funds. At times children join with neighbouring
schools to participate in local music workshops and festivals.
