Essential resources for the Kapow Primary Music scheme

This comprehensive equipment list provides a clear and organised overview of the necessary music resources for each year group across EYFS (Reception), KS1 and KS2. It ensures that teachers are well-equipped to develop the children’s listening, performing and evaluating skills. 

How is the equipment list organised?

The Music equipment list is organised by year group and then further broken down into individual units. It includes specialised resources (e.g. tuned and untuned percussion instruments, headphones) and everyday classroom supplies (e.g. card, paper, marker pens, sticky notes and devices).
