In addition to the overarching aims of the Australian Curriculum: The Arts, music knowledge, understanding and skills ensure that, individually and collaboratively, students develop:
- the confidence to be creative, innovative, thoughtful, skilful and informed musicians
 - skills to compose, perform, improvise, respond and listen with intent and purpose
 - aesthetic knowledge and respect for music and music practices across global communities, cultures and musical traditions
 - an understanding of music as an aural art form as they acquire skills to become independent music learners.
