Introducing the Music scheme of work

This downloadable guide is intended for parents and carers to understand what their children will learn each term by following the Kapow Primary Music scheme of work.

The guide provides a summary of each unit within the Music scheme, outlining what children will learn in their lesson plans each term from EYFS (Reception) to Year 6.

Subscribing schools may share this guide on their websites or through other communication channels, ensuring parents and carers are well-informed about the Music skills and knowledge their children will acquire throughout the school year.
