Our Music Curriculum
At Shipley CE Primary School, children gain a firm understanding of what music is through listening, singing, playing, evaluating, analysing, and composing, across a wide variety of historical periods, traditions, and genres. Our vision is to nurture creative thinking for lifelong learning, and we are committed to inspiring curiosity and appreciation about the many elements of music. As a Christian school, our values are at the heart of everything we do. For example, we aim to build resilience through practical skills work and respect, as we demonstrate an understanding of the validity and importance of all types of music and its role in different people’s lives. Through our music curriculum, we promote pupil well-being as we positively work to build up the confidence of all children. Music can impact the way that children feel, think and act; we want music to encourage the body and mind to work together, develop motor skills, allow self-expression, listening and cooperation skills.
