Everything you need to know about Music at Upton Junior School

"Ah music. A magic beyond all we do here."
​J. K. Rowling.

Music is enjoyed and valued by all pupils at Upton Junior School. Our music curriculum offers a diverse range of exciting activities that help children develop their performing, composing, and listening skills. These activities explore music from different styles and cultures, providing pupils the opportunity to learn a variety of instruments. 

At Upton Junior School, we understand that pupils grow as musicians individually and develop at their own pace. Tasks are therefore tailored to suit individual needs with the aim of all pupils achieving good or better progress. Pupils will leave Upton Junior School with an excellent foundation of musical skills and knowledge required for Key Stage 3, GCSE and beyond!

Music at Upton Junior School was further recognised when we were presented with a Music Mark award during the 2020 – 2021 academic year. Music Mark awards are given to schools who provide opportunities for pupils to access and engage with a high-quality music education, whilst offering and delivering a broad and balanced curriculum.
