St George's School, Colchester

At St George's School, music plays an important part in our school community. We have worked from Nursery through to Year 6 to create a high quality music curriculum, enabling all of our children to access a high quality music education.

It is hoped that through this they will develop a love for music, through an active involvement in performing, composing, listening and appraising across a wide range of historical periods, styles, traditions and musical genres embracing the cultural diversity of the world we live in.  We promote an understanding and the importance of all types of music, and respect the role music may play in any person’s life. The children learn to sing, and are given opportunities to perform to an audience. We encourage children to understand the value of music within the wider community, and enable them to be involved in musical experiences in a range of contexts.
