Principles of the Music Curriculum

We believe that every child deserves the opportunity to engage with music of all styles and from all cultures, in order to develop their own musical journey. Our curriculum is based largely around the highly-acclaimed Charanga Model Music Curriculum, which is built on the following principles: 

• Children will develop their skills in inquiry and critical thinking.
• Children will begin to feel and learn about social connectivity.
• Songs and singing lie at the heart of the learning process.
• The scheme will help children to understand and connect with different styles of music from various cultures, particularly where cultures intersect.
• Children will gain an understanding of historical and cultural contexts related to music.
• Children will form their own musical opinions and learn to make their own musical decisions
• Learning is fun, modern, inclusive and engaging.
