Music

Curriculum Intent

 

At Chyngton, we teach music to inspire our children to develop a love of music. Every child will learn to play a range of musical instruments through our curriculum. We want this to increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement, and to equip them with skills that they can take further in life.

We are fortunate to support children’s learning with specialist teaching provided by the Seaford Learning Trust.
