A Hub Singing Specialist for your school

Music Hub Singing Packages 2023/24 Academic Year

Your school's music curriculum is enhanced by the learning of music in line with the new National Plan for Music Education. The programme is co-designed with teachers so that there is a sharing of skills between the class teacher and musician. The class teacher should learn to play the instrument with the class, reinforcing musical learning throughout the school in between lessons.

Packages this year have been updated in response to both the model music curriculum and the new National Plan for Music Education The Power of Music to change lives and the Model Music Curriculum.

Our new updated packages are aimed to suit all school budgets and support staff whether experienced or new to their musical adventure.

Schemes of work have been updated to ensure that our work supports your Music Curriculum in school. Co-curricular resources and planning will help to super charge your music curriculum. These have been designed with the support of a primary music specialist and a formal cultural leader in education. A member of staff is required to be present and support the learning which is taking place during any whole class lessons. A calendar will be provided to show which 30 weeks of the year lessons will take place.
