Music Curriculum.

Our vision for music.

• We are a signing school. All children sing together at least twice a week and there are regular opportunities for performance throughout the year including in school, at church and at special events.

• Singing is a way for children to develop their spirituality and it promotes positive wellbeing. 

• Music is embedded in every aspect of school life and our aspiration is that every child adopts a lifelong love of music.

• Through playing, singing, creating and performing, children will develop confidence, communication skills, thinking and creative skills and improve their emotional well-being. Children will find that music is enjoyable and relaxing which reinforces that our children are Stutton Stars.

• We have a thriving choir who also enjoy performing to the school and wider audiences.
