We carefully plan and teach music in an integrated, practical, exploratory and child-led approach. The Charanga Musical School Scheme that we use here at Christ Church which provides week-by-week lessons for each year group in the school.
By using this scheme for our coverage of music we ensure all the requirements of the national curriculum are being taught. We also can be sure that we are in line with the curriculum for music and guidance from Ofsted.
