Hello! My name is Melody the Musician.

Music at Westwood

At Westwood we believe that music is a core part of the curriculum and that it has been proven to enhance and increase pupil's attainment in other subjects when taught effectively as part of the primary curriculum. Every child at Westwood will receive the opportunity to develop their musical identity through the teaching of whole class music via the curriculum and Instrumental lessons from Nursery to Yr 6. Not only does this provide a creative foundation from which children can develop key skills, it gives a sense of 'togetherness' and enhances social skills within the school. Throughout school singing is promoted as a means of expression, a booster of self-confidence and also used to enhance vocabulary in line with the Henley review.
