Music
|
At Skinners’ Kent Primary School we aim to develop a love for music across a wide range of genres, to inspire exploration and composition in order to enable an eventual skill of critical engagement. We aim to develop strong listening skills which can be then used across the wider curriculum and through their music learning, we aim to increase the child’s self-confidence, ability to work cooperatively as part of a team and to give them a sense of achievement.
