Music - Wider OPPORTUNITIES |
The National Plan for Music Education and the Model Music Curriculum both state that children should learn to play an instrument as part of a whole-class instrumental programme supported by teachers from their local Music Education Hub.
At Deer Park, we work closely with Derbyshire Music Hub to provide wider opoortunities to our children, as an integral part of our curriculum cycle.

BENEFITS for children
- Self-confidence | Pupils are taught within a normal classroom situation where their self-confidence grows as they learn alongside each other and their teachers.
- Skills | Pupils develop their musical skills in a creative way, participating in rhythm games and singing and learning to play instruments.
- Shared success | Performances are planned into the programme, giving parents the opportunities to share in their children's success.
- Training | Class teachers get 'in house' professional development which augments and supports music provision in school.
- Continued learning | There is the opportunity to continue instrumental tuition after the programme has ended.
