Music

Subject Intent

The high-quality teaching of music at Manor Oak enables all pupils gain the confidence and sense of achievement that comes with composing and performing their own compositions. Music allows our children to come together as part of the school community and ensures all pupils will succeed. It supports our children in expressing their thoughts and feelings in a medium that is different to other lessons and in turn allows them time to self-reflect. We aim for children to be curious about a variety instruments from around the world and in turn, a variety of cultures. We have a strong belief that music is for all. As children progress through the school, we believe children should develop a critical engagement with music and aim for the children to listen to a wide variety of music while they are at school.​
