A music development plan is a strategic document, mandated for schools, that outlines how the institution will provide high-quality music education for all students. It details the provision for curriculum music, co-curricular activities like choirs and bands, and musical experiences such as live performances and trips. The plan focuses on key features like timetabled lessons, access to instruments, ensemble opportunities, and performance events, as specified in the UK's National Plan for Music Education, and summaries are published annually on school websites.
