At MAHPS, our Music Curriculum is designed to inspire creativity, confidence, and a lifelong appreciation of music. Using the Charanga scheme as a foundation, our curriculum ensures pupils develop both the knowledge and skills needed to engage with music as performers, composers, and critical listeners.
Our curriculum builds progressively, allowing pupils to deepen their understanding of musical elements, genres, and traditions as they grow. This sequenced approach fosters creativity, teamwork, and resilience while encouraging pupils to explore the cultural and emotional significance of music.
Our Music Curriculum focuses on six key areas:
- Performing and Singing
- Exploring and Composing
- Listening and Appraising
- Cultural and Historical Connections
- Technical Skills and Knowledge
- Musical Identity and Expression
These focus areas ensure that pupils not only gain practical skills and musical knowledge but also develop the ability to express themselves, appreciate diversity, and connect with the universal language of music.
Please see below our curriculum overviews. This includes all the core knowledge and skills your children will be taught along each stage of their musical journey.
