Music Intent:

At Aylward we value music because it is a most powerful and unique form of communication that can change and impact the way children feel, think and act. We believe that teaching music helps the body and the mind work together.

We believe that every child should have the opportunity to develop their musical potential and we aim to nurture and encourage musical development across the school.

Exposing children to music during early development helps them to learn the sounds and meanings of words. Dancing to music helps children build motor skills while allowing them to practice self-expression. We believe that every child should have the opportunity to develop their musical potential. We aim to nurture and encourage musical development across the school. We aim to provide a music curriculum which will enable each child to be successful in reaching their full potential.
