Music
At Shooters Grove, it is our intent that we make music an enjoyable, integral , creative and inclusive learning experience. Children will gain a firm understanding of what music is through; listening, singing, playing, evaluating, analysing and composing a wide variety of historical periods, styles, traditions and musical genres. We believe all children should be able to reflect through music, allowing them to express and develop their own appreciation of this, through a wide variety of opportunities within school. Our aim is to fulfil the requirements of the National Curriculum for Music; ensuring the progressive development of musical knowledge, vocabulary and history is covered to a high standard. We strive for a high quality music curriculum, which should inspire pupils, develop confidence and creativity as well as understanding the value and importance of music within the wider community. We want all children to relish and love learning music in a variety of ways, providing a range of opportunities for all children to learn a musical instrument, from standard classroom instruments, to individual instrumental lessons with visiting peripatetic staff.
