We celebrate a range of different music through our curriculum and we teach children to consolidate their skills in performing, composing, listening and appraising. Music is taught by specialist music teacher from the Tri-Borough Music Hub.

We have a specialist music room, which is well-stocked with a wide range of instruments. We teach a range of different music through our curriculum and we encourage our pupils to consolidate their skills in performing, composing, listening and appraising. Through our curriculum, pupils are taught to sing and perform solo or in group ensemble contexts building on the skills each year from Nursery to Year 6. We also encourage staff to use music at different parts of the day (such as singing to enhance another curriculum subject, celebrate an occasion, or mark a routine).

Each week, we celebrate our love of music and singing through a ‘Singing Assembly’.

Extra-curricular music is provided through instrumental lessons and clubs such as choir, and we take part in regular events at prestigious London venues.

Choirs

We learn a range of music from choir classics to arrangements of popular tunes. Each year, the Choir performs at the O2 Arena in London as part of Young Voices.

Orchestra

The Bevington School Orchestra is an auditioned ensemble of musicians which rehearses weekly. We learn a range of music from classical pieces to arrangements of popular tunes. Any KS2 children, who are already learning an instrument, are welcome to audition. We perform on our own as part in regular concerts and recitals.

Instrumental Lessons

We currently offer weekly instrumental lessons in Piano, Guitar, Ukulele, Saxophone and Drums; we are also able to offer string and wind instruments upon request. These take place on either an individual or group basis, and are taught by experienced professional musicians. All pupils who receive instrumental lessons are offered places in our school ensembles, and talented instrumentalists will be offered solo or recital opportunities through the year.
