Our children learn to control sounds through singing, playing, rehearsing and performing with others. They develop their own musical ideas through improvising and composing and learn how to appraise music by analysing, talking about and responding to music. They are given opportunities to listen to a wide variety of different types of music including music from different cultures. Lessons are typically practical with singing and playing a variety of tuned and un-tuned instruments to develop a broad range of skills.

Every child at St John’s Highbury Vale Primary School engages in music education from their entry into Reception until the end of KS2 in Year 6.

In the Early Years, music is incorporated consistently into daily routines and is used to enhance teaching of the core curriculum, in addition to being taught as a stand-alone subject.

In KS1 and KS2, pupils participate in weekly music assemblies and a half an hour curriculum music lesson with a Music specialist teacher.

Extra-curricular music is positively encouraged. We have an active choir and ukulele club.
