This book will help any primary teacher deliver music in the classroom with confidence, however limited their previous experience.

It covers a wide range of issues including:

* Preparing your classroom and lessons
* Delivering the subject itself
* Raising the profile of music in your school and the wider community

Performing, listening, composing, assessment, using ICT, putting on concerts and planning the curriculum are just a few of the topics included.

While aimed at the practicing, non-specialist classroom teacher, there is also advice for music subject leaders, the head teacher and ultimately all of the staff in a school.

The author is a former secondary head of music in a performing arts college with considerable experience of working with his local primary schools to ease the transition from Key Stage 2 to the Key Stage 3 music curriculum.
