Together as one family
At St Joseph’s we follow the National Curriculum for Music (2014).
The National Curriculum for music aims to ensure that all pupils:
To meet these objectives, we use a music programme called Charanga, supported by Cumbria Music Hub, which provides a variety of lessons that are easy for the children to follow, that compare a variety of music genres and that allow the children to learn different instruments. The long-term plan has been designed for us to use in our school, over a 3 year programme, reflecting our class structure.
As well as this, we aim to offer other musical opportunities for our children. These include
We can offer extra-curricular lessons in guitar and recorder, and other instrumental teachers can be invited by request.
