North Ealing Primary School Orchestra

Our School’s Music Mission Statement:

• As a Rights Respecting School, we fully uphold the rights of every child to an education (Article 28), the right of every child to develop their personalities, talents and abilities (Article 30) and the right to take part in cultural/creative activities (Article 31).
• North Ealing encourages all of its pupils to take advantage of the many provided opportunities to explore the music of all styles, to develop specific musical skills, to engage in a wide variety of musical experiences and to participate in events that provide an outlet for their individual creativity.
• Incorporating our school’s Learning Values and British Values (notably Mutual Respect and Tolerance), the musical life of North Ealing embraces music of all styles, traditions and cultures – as must be expected within an inclusive and culturally diverse community.
• We develop and encourage exploration, curiosity and enthusiasm for making music by complementing topics in other curriculum areas, by engaging pupils in practical activities/ public performances and by providing the vocabulary/basic skills that will enable pupils to grow in confidence and provide a valuable outlet for their creativity.
• Music is not a competition! Music can embrace/involve everybody and our mission is to show our pupils that we are ALL musicians.

NEPS has a long tradition of music-making and is one of the few primary schools in Ealing to have an ‘in-house’ orchestra!

Since lockdown – which prevented the meeting of instrumental groups – that tradition is now being taken as our inspiration and encouraging us to bring new life and opportunities to our pupils.
