Trainee primary teachers will need to gain enough confidence to make music and learn the technical skills to teach the subject.
The new grant scheme will give schools an incentive to provide high-quality music education for their students.
An important condition is that they work together with colleges of music.
Applications for projects under the grant scheme must show how the school intends to make high-quality music education a permanent fixture in teacher training.
