Music Curriculum

“Playing a musical instrument can relieve stress, enhance creativity and has the added benefit of making you look super cool”.

The Importance of Music Education

Fortunately, there is such an activity. Music education greatly enhances students’ understanding and achievement in non-musical subjects.Participation in music also boasts social benefits for students. Music is a way to make friends. “Music is a universal language that embodies one of the highest forms of creativity. A high quality music education should engage and inspire pupils to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians, and so increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement. As pupils progress, they should develop a critical engagement with music, allowing them to compose, and to listen with discrimination to the best in the musical canon.”
