--- title: "Music" url: "https://www.meresideprimary.com/information/curriculum/music" school: "Mereside Primary Academy" --- # Music We want all pupils to develop a love and appreciation of different music styles throughout history, express themselves and their creativity in a variety of ways and to compose and appraise their own pieces. At Mereside we work closely with Blackpool Music Service to provide the pupils with many musical experiences both in and out of school. All children will have the opportunity to learn a musical instrument during their primary years through the wider opportunities program. Music composition, performance and appreciation are key to achieving the National Curriculum objectives and we have a dedicated music room for pupils to work in full of a variety of musical instruments. We encourage the pupils to perform whether this is in assemblies, at the Winter Gardens or The Grand Theatre or other venues and have both a pupil and staff choir who perform. Mereside also use the online Music Express scheme to support the teaching of music from Early Years to Y6. ### Music Documents Music Development Plan 182 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/mereside-primary-school-and-children-s-centre/files/documents/Music_Development_Plan.docx.pdf) Music At Mereside 644 KB [Open for printing](https://files.schudio.com/mereside-primary-school-and-children-s-centre/files/documents/Music_Curriculum(1).pdf) ![Mereside Primary Academy](https://files.schudio.com/mereside-primary-school-and-children-s-centre/images/logo/Literacy_Tree_School_Mereside(2).png) **Mereside Primary Academy** Langdale Road Blackpool FY4 4RR Tel: 01253 761531 Email: - [Lexia UK](https://www.lexiauk.co.uk/) - [ParentPay Login](https://app.parentpay.com/public/client/security/#/login) - [Childline Under 12's](https://www.childline.org.uk/kids/) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MeresidePS/) - [X](http://twitter.com/MeresidePrimary) ### Newsletter ### Translation © Copyright 2017–2026 Mereside Primary Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.meresideprimary.com/img/logo/dark.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
