Music

At Holy Trinity we have a broad and balanced curriculum, rich in knowledge and creativity.  Our intention is that we succeed in offering a curriculum for music which delivers the requirements of The National Curriculum for Music which aims to ensure that all pupils:

•  Perform, listen to and evaluate a comprehensive range of music
• Sing, create and compose music
• Understand how music is created, produced and communicated with ongoing emphasis on the inter-related dimensions of music: pitch, duration, dynamics, tempo, timbre, texture, structure and appropriate musical notations

 Through the teaching of music at Holy Trinity we want children to have a varied, progressive and well-planned musical experience based on the National Curriculum objectives.

Through varied and comprehensive musical experiences, we intend that music will “engage and inspire pupils to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians, and so increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement.” (National Curriculum DFE)

• We want them to develop a curiosity of different musical styles and value music from other periods of time, culture and countries.
• Pupils will become confident in performing, both in singing and using a range of instruments. They will be given the opportunity to appreciate recorded and live performances by their peers and musicians.
• Children will take part in class and whole school performances and productions.
