Music at St Bart's

At St Bart's we pride ourselves on providing a rich, dynamic and inclusive music curriculum.

All teaching staff are skilled in teaching the music national curriculum and there is a progression of skills and knowledge which ensures children leave the school with a good understanding of musical skills, such as, notation, composition and performance.  More information on the curriculum can be found within the Music Knowledge Organiser on our website:

Extra Provision

We provide a variety of extra-curricular music clubs at our school.  We have a school orchestra which runs all year, and we welcome all abilities and musical instruments.  Our school choir, which also runs throughout the year, often performs within the local community in events such as carol singing, performing at social events and singing at local care homes.
