About the Primary Years Programme (PYP)
The CYM Primary Years Programme aims to equip children with the skills, knowledge and understanding they need to become exceptional musicians. Delivered by a team of specialist tutors, our 4-year progressive programme draws inspiration from the esteemed Kodaly and Dalcroze teaching methods and beyond.
Through engaging group activities that embrace singing, playing, creating, listening and moving, students are introduced to the building blocks of music that shape the world around them. Vocal based learning in Year 1 broadens to include instrumental learning from Year 2 onwards. Additionally, students develop language and communication skills, grow in confidence and learn to express themselves in a fun and nurturing environment.
