Choose a subject

We believe Music unleashes the power of imagination using: creativity, communication, confidence and collaboration.

Our curriculum aims to develop pupils’ understanding of the 4C’s through the musical elements, experiencing the role of being a musician where they will create, respond and perform. Our unwavering inclusivity prepares all pupils for the wider world, where the whole child is developed; their self-esteem, confidence, emotional intelligence and empathy through the discovery of music.
