Music in School:

Aims

At Nevill Road Infants we believe music develops self-confidence, creativity and imagination.  We aim to promote a life-long love of music and opportunities for self-expression and personal achievement.  We aim to give children the opportunity to develop their talent and interest in a wide range of musical skills.

Our aims are to:

• Ensure children are provided with a variety of listening opportunities to appraise a wide genre of music

• Provide the children with a range of musical activities to develop skills including – singing, playing instruments (tuned and untuned), improvising and composing

• Give the children opportunities to share and perform what has taken place in lessons and work towards performing to an audience

• Offer the children a chance to learn to play the ukulele, or become a member of a rock band with external music providers, should they wish

• Encourage a passion for and commitment to a diverse range of musical activities and experiences
