Music
Intent
At Dinglewell Infant School we recognise that Music is a powerful and unique form of communication that can inspire and motivate children. It is a vehicle for personal expression which can play an important part in personal development. The intention of our music curriculum is first and foremost to inspire children to feel that they are musical and to develop a love of music. We focus on developing the knowledge, understanding and skills that children need to succeed in becoming confident listeners, composers and performers. Our curriculum introduces children to music from all around the world and across generations, teaching our children to respect and appreciate the music of all traditions and communities.
Our 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 gain an understanding of the history and cultural context of the music that they listen to and learn how music can be written down. At Dinglewell Infants we use music to help our children to develop transferable skills such as teamwork, leadership, creative thinking, problem-solving, decision-making and performance skills. These skills are vital to children’s development as learners and their lives outside of school and for their future.
