At Salterlee we aim to inspire our children to have a love of music and a desire to learn how to become musicians. Is it our intention to help children feel that they are musical, and to develop a life-long love of music. We focus on developing the skills, knowledge and understanding that children need in order to become confident performers, composers and listeners.
Our music scheme of work is mapped so that all the National Curriculum attainment targets are met. It shows progression of skills taught within each year group and how these skills develop year on year to ensure attainment targets are securely met by the end of each key stage.
We encourage children to develop music skills of singing, playing tuned and untuned instruments, improvising and composing music, alongside listening and responding to music.
Pupils receive a dedicated Music lesson per week, delivered by a Music specialist. There are other opportunities beyond lessons to participate in singing and instrumental activities.
