Music
At Godolphin Primary School, our intention is to help children to feel that they are musical, and to develop a life-long love of music. We focus on developing the skills, knowledge and
understanding that children need in order to become confident composers, performers, and listeners.
Our curriculum introduces children to music from all around the world, and across generations, teaching children to respect and appreciate music of all traditions and communities. Children
will develop the musical skills of singing, playing tuned and untuned instruments, improvising and composing music, and listening and responding to music. They will develop an
understanding of the history and cultural context of music that they listen to and learn how music can be written down.
Through music, our curriculum helps children develop transferable skills such as team-working, leadership, creative-thinking, problem-solving, decision-making, and presentation and
performance skills. These skills are vital to children’s development as learners and have a wider application in their general lives outside and beyond school.
