Music: School development plan

This School music development plan has been designed to help music subject leaders set out how to deliver high-quality music provision in curriculum music, extra-curricular music and musical experiences.

This template has been created to follow the structure of the School music development plan: summary template, provided by the Department for Education.

Part A has been completed for those schools that follow the Kapow Primary Long-term plan to teach curriculum music.

 

Part B and Part C of the document are editable to allow Music subject leaders to show the extra-curricular and musical opportunities the school provides beyond this core curriculum.

 

The final part of the document is editable to allow schools to show further improvements they would like to make to the music offerings within their school. We are committed to continuously enhancing our resources and support for schools. Please consider sharing any improvements you’ve made in your music curriculum with Kapow Primary ([email protected]).

The DfE says that a school development plan for Music should be published on the school website from September 2024. Schools should already publish the music curriculum for each year group online and the Kapow Primary Music Curriculum guide for parents and carers can be published on your school website to share this information.
