Music

The purpose of the Music curriculum at The Howard School is:

to adopt a “Music for All” ethos which enables our students to understand what music is (and means) through performing, composing, listening, and evaluating/analysing across a wide range of musical genres.
to develop our students’ self-confidence, coordination and dexterity, and a sense of achievement. Music in the curriculum has an impact on our students’ personal development in terms of cognition, perception, emotion and kinesthetic.
to engage and encourage our students to appreciate music in many forms across different historic periods and cultures/traditions and to inspire them to develop an understanding of the enriching benefits of music in their daily life around them, inclusively promoting understanding and tolerance of culture/traditions in Britain and world-wide through contextual study.
