Music teaching at Nields Academy aims to follow the specifications of the National Curriculum: to provide a broad, balanced curriculum which ensures progressive development of musical concepts, knowledge and skills.
It is our belief that music is a crucial, inclusive channel through which children can express their creativity, emotions and opinions in safe, nurturing environment. Lessons will foster communication, collaboration and respect and provide all children with the opportunity to listen, analyse, sing, play, compose and perform across a wide variety of musical genres, styles and historical traditions and periods.
We believe music education should engage, inspire and develop a love of music and children’s talents as young musicians. We intend for musical opportunities and performances to enhance pupils’ confidence, resilience and sense of achievement.
