Take criticism seriously, but not personally. If there is truth or merit in the criticism, try to learn from it. Otherwise let it roll right off you.

SMSC in Our Curriculum

SMSC is Spiritual, Moral, Social and Cultural development of the children in our school. This is not a separate subject that is taught explicitly but is an aspect of learning that should be present in lessons and behaviour in school. Some lessons lend themselves more easily to direct SMSC development such as Personal Development and RE, although this can be developed across the full curriculum. We also aim to develop SMSC through worship, behaviour expectations and our attitudes in school. Please see how we develop this below.

Music

 

The Department for Education publishes a guide for parents and young people on how they can get involved in music in and out of school, and where they can go to for support beyond the school.

Please find a summary of our music development plan below.

Your local music hub should also have a local plan for music education in place from September 2024 that should include useful information.
