Music
Why we teach Music at Ladywood:
Music connects us all. We recognise it is a tool which inspires creativity, is a means of self-expression and steers children on their musical journeys as well as giving them opportunities to connect with others.
It is a universal language that allows us to connect across the world, encouraging diversity and multicultural understanding. Giving children an understanding of creative developments over time.
At Ladywood, we encourage children to adopt a life-long love and enjoyment by exposing them to a wealth of musical experiences and igniting a passion for music. Music affects emotions and is beneficial to our well-being.
It forms our identity, promotes a sense of community and belonging. It enhances self-esteem and self-discipline, nurturing transferable skills.
