LITERACY in MUSIC Music in schools: promoting good practic - guidanc from HMI for tachrs and had tachrs. - Ofstd 2012 It is always important that tachrs promot pupils' litracy and numracy skills, and rading in particular, across all aras of th curriculum. Howvr, whr good musical taching and larning tak plac, th dvlopmnt of pupils' musical skills and undrstanding is th primary considration.

Individual itms of work might b markd against tachr- dfind or shard critria for a particular lsson (i.. th succss of a prformanc of a raga), but whn it coms to making an ovrall judgmnt, it is th complt vidnc of larning that is assssd against th singl statmnts of th lvls. MUSIC LEVELS Yar 5 Yar 6 Yar 7 Yar 8 Working at th standard nationally xpctd 3/4 4 4/5 5 Lvl 3: (LAYERS) Pupils rcognis and xplor th ways sounds can b combind and usd xprssivly.
