Sheffield Primary Music Network
Networking, CPD and peer support for Primary School teachers and Music Leads
Music is a statutory subject in the national curriculum for all children in primary school. Music should be planned, sequenced and taught as robustly as any other foundation subject and as part of a broad and balanced curriculum for pupils. Singing should be “the golden thread” for music in primary schools.
Under the National Plan for Music, Primary schools are expected to embed high-quality music education “either by adopting the Model Music Curriculum, or implementing a curriculum that is at least comparable in breadth and ambition.” (p23, NPME)
Music Hub aims to support schools to deliver high-quality music education through a range of opportunities including:
- Supporting termly Music Subject Leader meetings which are delivered in partnership between Sheffield Music Hub, Rotherham Music hub, Learn Sheffield and RoSIS:
