Music – Our content, aims and concepts

Music at Galmpton

At Galmpton C of E Primary School, we aim for all children to experience, appreciate and enjoy music whilst valuing how important it can be as a form of expression throughout a person’s life. Whilst at Galmpton, children will undertake a curious exploration of a wide variety of musical styles, traditions and genres. We use the Charanga music programme to support our teaching, ensuring that all KS2 learn two instruments a year. We are very fortunate to have an experienced music teacher who comes in weekly to teach ukulele. We also offer woodwind, guitar, piano and drumming lessons for individual tuition. Our children can take part in our after school choir club and the very popular ‘rock steady’ club. At the end of each year we have a musical celebration assembly where children showcase their musical talents across the school.
