Music

At Marfleet we want to ensure all learners, receive the knowledge and cultural capital they need to succeed in life. It provides for our wonderful children broader development, enabling them to develop and discover their interests and talents. We want our children to leave us well rounded, respectable and ready for the world

Our curriculum is centred around our BEST principles:

Believing all children can, Engagement through excellence, Skills for life and Trailblazing thinkers

Our Music Curriculum is to unlock and nurture every child’s innate musical potential, guaranteeing access to high-quality music education for all children, irrespective of their social background or starting point. We aim to use music as a fundamental tool for personal growth, fostering a lifelong passion, critical thinking, and the essential life skills of teamwork and a strong work ethic. To achieve this, the curriculum ensures that every child has the opportunity to play, perform, and compose using school-provided instruments, while being exposed to a rich, global repertoire to encourage curiosity and help them find their own musical passions. Through structured ensemble work and instrumental practice, children learn the value of active listening, collaboration toward shared goals, and the perseverance and discipline required to play music. All of our KS2 music is taught by the Hull Music Service as we believe that children learn best by those most skilled.
