Music 2021 - 2022

“Music is the divine way to tell beautiful, poetic things to the heart.” - Pablo Casalas

At Boundary Primary School, we recognise that music is a universal language that embodies the highest forms of creativity. Our music curriculum is designed to ignite a passion and love of music. All pupils will develop a critical engagement with music, allowing them to compose within, and to listen with discrimination to, a wide range of musical genres.
