This training session provides a comprehensive overview of teaching music across Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.
Designed for both music specialists and non-specialists, the session will support you in delivering high-quality, engaging music lessons that align with the National Curriculum and meet the needs of all learners.
We will explore:
- Curriculum Coverage
An overview of the statutory requirements for music in KS1 and KS2, with guidance on how to plan and sequence lessons that build musical knowledge, skills, and understanding over time.
- High-Quality Resources
A look at a range of accessible and effective resources, including schemes of work, digital tools, instruments, and planning templates to support engaging and inclusive music teaching.
- Assessing Progress in Music
Practical strategies for monitoring and evidencing pupil progress in music, including informal assessment, listening tasks, performance opportunities, and pupil voice.
- Progression
What does progression in all areas of the music curriculum look like from Year 1 – Y6 and how can we ensure that all children reach their potential.
There will be opportunities to share ideas, ask questions, and leave with practical tools and inspiration for your music teaching journey.
