We are pleased to offer this NEW GCSE Music course for 2024, led by Simon Toyne and designed for all GCSE Music teachers, regardless of which exam specification is being followed.
The aims and purpose of this NEW GCSE Music course is to enrich and extend curriculum perspectives placing teaching music musically at the central core of the GCSE curriculum ( also the KS3 curriculum where the knowledge, and skills for GCSE are developed and honed).
The course will include all three components of the major exam boards, and particular emphasis will be on effective, motivational strategies to teach the key skills of appraising, listening, including Unfamiliar extracts, building composing skills and building performance skills through class lessons to make for a vibrant, meaningful and fulfilling two year course for all students – one in which takes channels as its central core student learning and professional teaching through a depth of real musical understanding, development, perspective – getting students to think musically from the start, and so to approach their learning in music from a different, very practical, very musical point.
In addition, focus will also be on how teachers can create a coherent musical journey for their students over the two year course, while at the same time ensuring students of all abilities achieve their best possible outcomes at the ned of the course.
