The ukulele is the perfect instrument to teach in primary schools. It’s fun to play, easy to teach and within minutes you can have children playing their first songs.

Using this book, you can teach the ukulele to meet National Curriculum requirements for Key Stages 1 and 2. Even teachers who have never played the ukulele before can deliver exciting and rewarding lessons that children will really enjoy!

Ukulele School has 12 catchy songs that children will love to play and sing, even if they are complete beginners. It has been carefully arranged by professional ukulele player and teacher Paul Mansell, to take children from playing just one chord, through to more challenging songs. Paul has drawn on his many years’ experience of teaching the ukulele to ensure that you will teach the correct techniques, along with the basics of music notation, whilst using a fun approach.

Downloadable resources

Along with the Ukulele School book and CD, teachers can also utilise these useful downloadable resources, including lesson plan PDFs and follow along videos that are designed to help non-specialist educators prepare their lessons, making learning the ukulele fun and engaging for all students.

The PDFs offer instructions on how to teach a class of students by providing lesson objectives, equipment lists, assessment opportunities, and more. The videos demonstrate which notes to play for a variety of songs, and they also present useful information, such as how to tune your ukulele.
