Intent
At Rattlesden, we aim to inspire a lifelong love of music. Children learn to listen, sing, compose and perform, while exploring music from different cultures, eras and genres. Through music, pupils develop confidence in their own musical ability and understand how music is used as a powerful form of expression around the world. Alongside musical skills, children also build important transferable skills such as teamwork, creativity, leadership and performance, helping them grow in confidence both in and beyond the classroom.

Implementation
All classes receive a weekly one-hour music lesson. Music is taught through the Kapow scheme and through whole-class instrument teaching. Across Key Stage 2, children learn to play the glockenspiel, tenor horn, ukulele and recorder, meaning they leave Rattlesden having experienced and performed on four different instruments.
In Year 4, pupils take part in whole-class ensemble tuition delivered by Suffolk County Music Service. In other year groups, music is taught through a combination of Kapow units and whole-class ensemble teaching led by class teachers.
Children experience and enjoy music from a wide range of cultures, genres and eras. They are encouraged to listen to, appraise and evaluate different styles of music and use these ideas to support their own compositions.
We actively promote music across the school, not only in lessons but through performances and events. Year 4 pupils attend the Suffolk County Music Service WCET festival annually, and children regularly perform in class assemblies and church services.
Children also have the opportunity to take part in weekly iRock lessons, where they perform as part of a band, learn new songs and take part in a performance at the end of each term.
