ContinYou - Extended Schools
Over the next 6 months Sing Up will be working in partnership with ContinYou to link singing projects into the Extended Schools agenda, ensuring all projects are maximising staff support, resources and funding available to ensure that projects are outcome focussed, making a difference and sustainable.
Singing and Extended Schools
Singing can be a wonderful way of developing the Extended Schools “Core Offer”.
The Core Offer will require all schools to offer access to affordable Childcare, Study Support, Access to Specialised Services, Parental Support and Community Use of the school’s facilities by 2010.
Song can be used as a vibrant and positive start to the day through singing based breakfast clubs. After-school singing clubs and choirs can boost pupils morale and help improve learning in all subjects.
Singing is a valuable tool used to help children with speech and language difficulties improve their communication skills. Song has the power to bring communities together and to engage with parents. It can also help us to identify with our own culture and to explore the culture and identity of others.
In every area of the Extended Schools “Core Offer”, singing can be used as a way to engage the disengaged, reach out to those families who can be “hard to reach” and help to narrow the gap in pupil’s achievement.
