KS3 topic work regularly shows good and exceptional understanding. Our greatest impact in the Music department is the engagement of our students that can be seen in all lessons. The biggest gain that we want from our curriculum is for students' confidence to increase as a holistic person as well as a performing/composing musician. Models of excellence are given to inspire, with scaffolding and independent practice used as common lesson structure for students to achieve their best. There is an emphasis of building expertise over time, with sufficient time to review previous learnt material as well as the opportunity to build new skills step by step. The assessment of music is through the journey and progress that students make within the lesson, semester and year. Our Music curriculum is designed to give a broad spectrum of genres through which to master skills and gain secure knowledge of music. Students will experience a range of Musical Genres that will inspire and engage them through a variety of different activities.
