the French Ministry of Education to certify the competency of candidates from outside
France in the French language. DELF is composed of 6 independent diplomas that
correspond to the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for
Languages (CEFRL)".
Students who want to set this exam, they can do it in “The Alliance Française” in the

SHAIKHA HESSA GIRLS’ SCHOOL
Instructor: Olena Ponomarenko
This course is based on: UK Natl: Secondary: Music
Attainment Target and Level Descriptions for Music G 6-8
At Key Stage 3, pupils should be encouraged to develop their musicianship and self-confidence
through a wide range of individual and group music-making activities. They should be
encouraged to listen to unfamiliar music with open and enquiring minds.
The making and responding to music requirements are carried out within the context of the
following composing, performing and listening activities. While one or more of these activities
may provide the main focus for a lesson, or part of a lesson, the three are interdependent. Pupils
should be encouraged to perceive their inter-relatedness.
Improvising and Composing
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
create arrangements of familiar music and accompaniments to songs;
b
improvise within a rhythmic/harmonic framework and from a given stimulus;
c
explore the structural, expressive and stylistic potential of the elements of music,
d
compose music which expresses their ideas and feelings in relation to a given
stimulus.
e
present compositions and arrangements in a finished form and with appropriate
annotation.
Interpreting and Performing
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
perform a variety of music by ear, from memory and from notations;
b
perform music which increases technical control and expressive capability;
c
perform a variety of music which requires independent part-playing or singing;
d
develop skills in ensemble playing;
e
develop the ability to communicate with an audience when performing;
f
take responsibility for rehearsing and directing group performances.
Listening and Appraising
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
identify and evaluate their own contribution to group compositions and
performances;
b
modify and refine their improvisations and compositions;
c
listen to a wide variety of music from different periods, styles, cultures and
contexts and discuss how the elements of music are used for structural and
expressive purposes;
d
listen to and discuss a wide variety of music which relates to, or will inform, the
music they compose and perform;
e
listen to and appraise their own music and that of others.
Attainment target
Music has one attainment target entitled: Making and Responding to Music. The level
descriptions, set out within Levels 1 to 8, therefore, cover the subject as a whole. The
relationships between the attainment target and the program of study is set out below.
The program of study at Key Stage 3 covers up to Level 8 of the attainment target. It is expected
that the majority of pupils will be working at either Level 5 or 6 at the end of the Key Stage. It
should be noted that level descriptions build successively on the knowledge, understanding and
skills of lower levels which are, therefore, subsumed within them.
Level 3
Pupils recognize and explore the ways sounds can be combined and used expressively. They sing
in tune with expression and perform rhythmically simple parts that use a limited range of notes.
They improvise repeated patterns and combine several layers of sound with awareness of the
combined effect. They recognize how the different musical elements are combined and used
expressively and make improvements to their own work, commenting on the intended effect.
Level 4
Pupils identify and explore the relationship between sounds and how music reflects different
intentions. While performing by ear and from simple notations they maintain their own part with
awareness of how the different parts fit together and the need to achieve an overall effect. They
improvise melodic and rhythmic phrases as part of a group performance and compose by
developing ideas within musical structures. They describe, compare and evaluate different kinds
of music using an appropriate musical vocabulary. They suggest improvements to their own and
others' work, commenting on how intentions have been achieved.
Level 5
Pupils identify and explore musical devices and how music reflects time and place. They
perform significant parts from memory and from notations with awareness of their own
contribution such as leading others, taking a solo part and/or providing rhythmic support. They
improvise melodic and rhythmic material within given structures, use a variety of notations and
compose music for different occasions using appropriate musical devices such as melody,
rhythms, chords and structures. They analyze and compare musical features. They evaluate how
venue, occasion and purpose affects the way music is created, performed and heard. They refine
and improve their work.
Level 6
Pupils identify and explore the different processes and contexts of selected musical genres and
styles. They select and make expressive use of tempo, dynamics, phrasing and timbre. They
make subtle adjustments to fit their own part within a group performance. They improvise and
compose in different genres and styles, using harmonic and non-harmonic devices where
relevant, sustaining and developing musical ideas and achieving different intended effects. They
use relevant notations to plan, revise and refine material. They analyze, compare and evaluate
how music reflects the contexts in which it is created, performed and heard. They make
improvements to their own and others' work in the light of the chosen style.
Level 7
Pupils discriminate and explore musical conventions in, and influences on, selected genres,
styles and traditions. They perform in different styles, making significant contributions to the
ensemble and using relevant notations. They create coherent compositions drawing on
internalized sounds and adapt, improvise, develop, extend and discard musical ideas within given
and chosen musical structures, genres, styles and traditions. They evaluate, and make critical
judgments about, the use of musical conventions and other characteristics and how different
contexts are reflected in their own and others' work.
Level 8
Pupils discriminate and exploit the characteristics and expressive potential of selected musical
resources, genres, styles and traditions. They perform, improvise and compose extended
compositions with a sense of direction and shape, both within melodic and rhythmic phrases and
overall form. They explore different styles, genres and traditions, working by ear and by making
accurate use of appropriate notations and both following and challenging conventions. They
discriminate between musical styles, genres and traditions, commenting on the relationship
between the music and its cultural context, making and justifying their own judgments.
Exceptional performance
Pupils discriminate and develop different interpretations. They express their own ideas and
feelings in a developing personal style exploiting instrumental and/or vocal possibilities. They
give convincing performances and demonstrate empathy with other performers. They produce
compositions that demonstrate a coherent development of musical ideas, consistency of style and
a degree of individuality. They discriminate and comment on how and why changes occur within
selected traditions including the particular contribution of significant performers and composers.

the French Ministry of Education to certify the competency of candidates from outside
France in the French language. DELF is composed of 6 independent diplomas that
correspond to the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for
Languages (CEFRL)".
Students who want to set this exam, they can do it in “The Alliance Française” in the

SHAIKHA HESSA GIRLS’ SCHOOL
Instructor: Olena Ponomarenko
This course is based on: UK Natl: Secondary: Music
Attainment Target and Level Descriptions for Music G 6-8
At Key Stage 3, pupils should be encouraged to develop their musicianship and self-confidence
through a wide range of individual and group music-making activities. They should be
encouraged to listen to unfamiliar music with open and enquiring minds.
The making and responding to music requirements are carried out within the context of the
following composing, performing and listening activities. While one or more of these activities
may provide the main focus for a lesson, or part of a lesson, the three are interdependent. Pupils
should be encouraged to perceive their inter-relatedness.
Improvising and Composing
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
create arrangements of familiar music and accompaniments to songs;
b
improvise within a rhythmic/harmonic framework and from a given stimulus;
c
explore the structural, expressive and stylistic potential of the elements of music,
d
compose music which expresses their ideas and feelings in relation to a given
stimulus.
e
present compositions and arrangements in a finished form and with appropriate
annotation.
Interpreting and Performing
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
perform a variety of music by ear, from memory and from notations;
b
perform music which increases technical control and expressive capability;
c
perform a variety of music which requires independent part-playing or singing;
d
develop skills in ensemble playing;
e
develop the ability to communicate with an audience when performing;
f
take responsibility for rehearsing and directing group performances.
Listening and Appraising
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
identify and evaluate their own contribution to group compositions and
performances;
b
modify and refine their improvisations and compositions;
c
listen to a wide variety of music from different periods, styles, cultures and
contexts and discuss how the elements of music are used for structural and
expressive purposes;
d
listen to and discuss a wide variety of music which relates to, or will inform, the
music they compose and perform;
e
listen to and appraise their own music and that of others.
Attainment target
Music has one attainment target entitled: Making and Responding to Music. The level
descriptions, set out within Levels 1 to 8, therefore, cover the subject as a whole. The
relationships between the attainment target and the program of study is set out below.
The program of study at Key Stage 3 covers up to Level 8 of the attainment target. It is expected
that the majority of pupils will be working at either Level 5 or 6 at the end of the Key Stage. It
should be noted that level descriptions build successively on the knowledge, understanding and
skills of lower levels which are, therefore, subsumed within them.
Level 3
Pupils recognize and explore the ways sounds can be combined and used expressively. They sing
in tune with expression and perform rhythmically simple parts that use a limited range of notes.
They improvise repeated patterns and combine several layers of sound with awareness of the
combined effect. They recognize how the different musical elements are combined and used
expressively and make improvements to their own work, commenting on the intended effect.
Level 4
Pupils identify and explore the relationship between sounds and how music reflects different
intentions. While performing by ear and from simple notations they maintain their own part with
awareness of how the different parts fit together and the need to achieve an overall effect. They
improvise melodic and rhythmic phrases as part of a group performance and compose by
developing ideas within musical structures. They describe, compare and evaluate different kinds
of music using an appropriate musical vocabulary. They suggest improvements to their own and
others' work, commenting on how intentions have been achieved.
Level 5
Pupils identify and explore musical devices and how music reflects time and place. They
perform significant parts from memory and from notations with awareness of their own
contribution such as leading others, taking a solo part and/or providing rhythmic support. They
improvise melodic and rhythmic material within given structures, use a variety of notations and
compose music for different occasions using appropriate musical devices such as melody,
rhythms, chords and structures. They analyze and compare musical features. They evaluate how
venue, occasion and purpose affects the way music is created, performed and heard. They refine
and improve their work.
Level 6
Pupils identify and explore the different processes and contexts of selected musical genres and
styles. They select and make expressive use of tempo, dynamics, phrasing and timbre. They
make subtle adjustments to fit their own part within a group performance. They improvise and
compose in different genres and styles, using harmonic and non-harmonic devices where
relevant, sustaining and developing musical ideas and achieving different intended effects. They
use relevant notations to plan, revise and refine material. They analyze, compare and evaluate
how music reflects the contexts in which it is created, performed and heard. They make
improvements to their own and others' work in the light of the chosen style.
Level 7
Pupils discriminate and explore musical conventions in, and influences on, selected genres,
styles and traditions. They perform in different styles, making significant contributions to the
ensemble and using relevant notations. They create coherent compositions drawing on
internalized sounds and adapt, improvise, develop, extend and discard musical ideas within given
and chosen musical structures, genres, styles and traditions. They evaluate, and make critical
judgments about, the use of musical conventions and other characteristics and how different
contexts are reflected in their own and others' work.
Level 8
Pupils discriminate and exploit the characteristics and expressive potential of selected musical
resources, genres, styles and traditions. They perform, improvise and compose extended
compositions with a sense of direction and shape, both within melodic and rhythmic phrases and
overall form. They explore different styles, genres and traditions, working by ear and by making
accurate use of appropriate notations and both following and challenging conventions. They
discriminate between musical styles, genres and traditions, commenting on the relationship
between the music and its cultural context, making and justifying their own judgments.
Exceptional performance
Pupils discriminate and develop different interpretations. They express their own ideas and
feelings in a developing personal style exploiting instrumental and/or vocal possibilities. They
give convincing performances and demonstrate empathy with other performers. They produce
compositions that demonstrate a coherent development of musical ideas, consistency of style and
a degree of individuality. They discriminate and comment on how and why changes occur within
selected traditions including the particular contribution of significant performers and composers.

and constructions of French, providing a sound basis for further studies.
French is an elective subject for Grade 9 and 10, students have GCSE program for two
years. It offers positive and appropriate assessment for modern language learners. It
promotes the development of different language skills and provides opportunities to
apply these across a range of relevant contexts.
The French teacher has also an objective to prepare students to pass the Delf exam.
DELF " (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) is official qualification awarded by
the French Ministry of Education to certify the competency of candidates from outside
France in the French language. DELF is composed of 6 independent diplomas that
correspond to the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for
Languages (CEFRL)".
Students who want to set this exam, they can do it in “The Alliance Française” in the
end of the year.

SHAIKHA HESSA GIRLS’ SCHOOL
Instructor: Olena Ponomarenko
This course is based on: UK Natl: Secondary: Music
Attainment Target and Level Descriptions for Music G 6-8
At Key Stage 3, pupils should be encouraged to develop their musicianship and self-confidence
through a wide range of individual and group music-making activities. They should be
encouraged to listen to unfamiliar music with open and enquiring minds.
The making and responding to music requirements are carried out within the context of the
following composing, performing and listening activities. While one or more of these activities
may provide the main focus for a lesson, or part of a lesson, the three are interdependent. Pupils
should be encouraged to perceive their inter-relatedness.
Improvising and Composing
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
create arrangements of familiar music and accompaniments to songs;
b
improvise within a rhythmic/harmonic framework and from a given stimulus;
c
explore the structural, expressive and stylistic potential of the elements of music,
d
compose music which expresses their ideas and feelings in relation to a given
stimulus.
e
present compositions and arrangements in a finished form and with appropriate
annotation.
Interpreting and Performing
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
perform a variety of music by ear, from memory and from notations;
b
perform music which increases technical control and expressive capability;
c
perform a variety of music which requires independent part-playing or singing;
d
develop skills in ensemble playing;
e
develop the ability to communicate with an audience when performing;
f
take responsibility for rehearsing and directing group performances.
Listening and Appraising
Pupils should have opportunities to:
a
identify and evaluate their own contribution to group compositions and
performances;
b
modify and refine their improvisations and compositions;
c
listen to a wide variety of music from different periods, styles, cultures and
contexts and discuss how the elements of music are used for structural and
expressive purposes;
d
listen to and discuss a wide variety of music which relates to, or will inform, the
music they compose and perform;
e
listen to and appraise their own music and that of others.
Attainment target
Music has one attainment target entitled: Making and Responding to Music. The level
descriptions, set out within Levels 1 to 8, therefore, cover the subject as a whole. The
relationships between the attainment target and the program of study is set out below.
The program of study at Key Stage 3 covers up to Level 8 of the attainment target. It is expected
that the majority of pupils will be working at either Level 5 or 6 at the end of the Key Stage. It
should be noted that level descriptions build successively on the knowledge, understanding and
skills of lower levels which are, therefore, subsumed within them.
Level 3
Pupils recognize and explore the ways sounds can be combined and used expressively. They sing
in tune with expression and perform rhythmically simple parts that use a limited range of notes.
They improvise repeated patterns and combine several layers of sound with awareness of the
combined effect. They recognize how the different musical elements are combined and used
expressively and make improvements to their own work, commenting on the intended effect.
Level 4
Pupils identify and explore the relationship between sounds and how music reflects different
intentions. While performing by ear and from simple notations they maintain their own part with
awareness of how the different parts fit together and the need to achieve an overall effect. They
improvise melodic and rhythmic phrases as part of a group performance and compose by
developing ideas within musical structures. They describe, compare and evaluate different kinds
of music using an appropriate musical vocabulary. They suggest improvements to their own and
others' work, commenting on how intentions have been achieved.
Level 5
Pupils identify and explore musical devices and how music reflects time and place. They
perform significant parts from memory and from notations with awareness of their own
contribution such as leading others, taking a solo part and/or providing rhythmic support. They
improvise melodic and rhythmic material within given structures, use a variety of notations and
compose music for different occasions using appropriate musical devices such as melody,
rhythms, chords and structures. They analyze and compare musical features. They evaluate how
venue, occasion and purpose affects the way music is created, performed and heard. They refine
and improve their work.
Level 6
Pupils identify and explore the different processes and contexts of selected musical genres and
styles. They select and make expressive use of tempo, dynamics, phrasing and timbre. They
make subtle adjustments to fit their own part within a group performance. They improvise and
compose in different genres and styles, using harmonic and non-harmonic devices where
relevant, sustaining and developing musical ideas and achieving different intended effects. They
use relevant notations to plan, revise and refine material. They analyze, compare and evaluate
how music reflects the contexts in which it is created, performed and heard. They make
improvements to their own and others' work in the light of the chosen style.
Level 7
Pupils discriminate and explore musical conventions in, and influences on, selected genres,
styles and traditions. They perform in different styles, making significant contributions to the
ensemble and using relevant notations. They create coherent compositions drawing on
internalized sounds and adapt, improvise, develop, extend and discard musical ideas within given
and chosen musical structures, genres, styles and traditions. They evaluate, and make critical
judgments about, the use of musical conventions and other characteristics and how different
contexts are reflected in their own and others' work.
Level 8
Pupils discriminate and exploit the characteristics and expressive potential of selected musical
resources, genres, styles and traditions. They perform, improvise and compose extended
compositions with a sense of direction and shape, both within melodic and rhythmic phrases and
overall form. They explore different styles, genres and traditions, working by ear and by making
accurate use of appropriate notations and both following and challenging conventions. They
discriminate between musical styles, genres and traditions, commenting on the relationship
between the music and its cultural context, making and justifying their own judgments.
Exceptional performance
Pupils discriminate and develop different interpretations. They express their own ideas and
feelings in a developing personal style exploiting instrumental and/or vocal possibilities. They
give convincing performances and demonstrate empathy with other performers. They produce
compositions that demonstrate a coherent development of musical ideas, consistency of style and
a degree of individuality. They discriminate and comment on how and why changes occur within
selected traditions including the particular contribution of significant performers and composers.
