The Intent

We work with our partners at Kapow to ensure our staff can provide the best music curriculum for  children at Anson Primary School. 

"Supporting the right of all children and young people in Brent to an excellent music education which inspires, enriches lives and develops a life-long love of music" 

The Implementation

The curriculum provides high quality music lessons, linked to the National Curriculum and delivered by class teachers. 

It is a classroom-based programme which teaches music in a fun and creative, yet structured manner. The carefully designed, progressive syllabus develops children’s musical skills and understanding in a practical way from Nursery through to Year 6.

With singing and performing at its heart, the programme gives children the opportunity to learn several instruments from a range of musical traditions. 

Instruments include: 

• Recorder
• Ukulele
• Body Percussion
• Tamboo Bamboo
• Drumming
• Samba
• Rap 
• Beatboxing

What's included?

As our vision is all about happy, confident and creative children with a lifelong love of learning, it will come as no surprise that music is fun, allows children to express themselves musically and emotionally and ensures they develop the skills and confidence to perform.

As a result we see this in:

• pupils performing at events locally in the school choir
• whole school musical performances in assemblies
• regular singing and composition in class showcases
• entry into competitions and events such as the London Borough of Culture
• song writing for Digital Leaders, Eco Council or filmmaking. 

The impact

• Children are able to express themselves through music
• Children become proficient in listening and creating music
• Children are given the chance to explore music throughout the week and use it across the curriculum
• Children enjoy music and develop a love of the subject
