Impact

At Bolton-by-Bowland, our children are given a diverse range of opportunities to become confident musicians and performers.

We use a range of assessment techniques to ensure our children are able to make progress and aquire the skills necessary to further develop their musicality. We observe children at work, individually, in pairs, in a group and in class during whole class teaching. We watch and assess the children whilst they perform. We use differentiated and open-ended questions that require children to explain and unpick their understanding. We also provide our children with effective verbal feedback.

The impact of the music curriculum at Bolton-by-Bowland is evidenced in pupil outcomes and pupil voice. As children progress through the school, they acquire key knowledge and skills in the field of music.
