Our Progressive Music Curriculum
To ensure children are taught and remember the appropriate knowledge and skills relating to Music we have created a whole school progressive breakdown of the national curriculum expectations. This draws on the skills and knowledge being taught across all subject areas and hopes to contribute to the development of key concepts and themes in a deep and connected way.
