Performance Arts
Music and Drama in Key Stage 2 & 3
In Music, students have the opportunity to develop a variety of skills focusing on both practical and theoretical aspects of music. They learn to play a variety of different percussion instruments as well as develop their skills on the keyboard. Through the practical elements they also learn about some of the more technical aspects of music, including composition, and develop a growing musical vocabulary.
Drama and Music lessons feature on the weekly timetables for students at Key Stage 2 and 3. During these sessions students are engaged in a variety of different activities from music appreciation to music production, using and performing with play scripts, to learning to use the lighting/sound desk for a performance and creating props/costumes and scenery.
