**The latest condensed long-term plan can now be found on the Music curriculum portal.**

The condensed Long-term plan focuses on covering the National curriculum and the essential skills and knowledge in the Music curriculum in only three units.

At Kapow Primary we understand that curriculum time is always tight in primary schools. Therefore, we have created a condensed curriculum version of our Long-term plan to help those schools who want to ensure coverage of the national curriculum, without dedicating an hour a week to Music.

We have ensured there is a range of musical styles covered and that the interrelated dimensions of music (pulse, pitch, duration, dynamics, tempo, timbre, texture, structure, appropriate musical notation) are given similar attention in terms of coverage. This version of our long-term plan could be used if teaching Music in a two-week, half-termly cycle or through blocking the foundation subjects. Or it could be used to relieve pressure on curriculum time.
