Music

Lanesend Primary School’s Music curriculum provides our children with opportunities to feel that they are musical, to develop a life-long love of music and to become real musicians. We want children to learn about music from all around the world and across generations, teaching children to respect and appreciate the music of all traditions and communities. Children participate in a progressive sequence of learning, allowing them opportunities to sing, explore tuned and untuned instrumental work, develop compositions, and to listen, appreciate and respond to both live and recorded music. All children are taught the skills to be able to compose using musical instruments. From an early age, children are exposed to graphic scores to aid their notation of sounds. Then, when the children are ready, formal musical notation is taught and children are taught correct musical terminology. It is our aspiration that all children will be able to read and understand music notation by the time they leave Lanesend Primary School, and that they continue their learning journey with a love and passion for music.
