“Singing to learn, learning to sing” is a new music framework that is being introduced. The framework, developed by the Music Education Partnership Group, a collection of arts and education organisations, provides support for practitioners to ensure there are regular opportunities for singing in all Scottish early learning and childcare settings and primary schools.
This video shows how a primary 2 class uses that framework as part of their daily registration.
