Music Therapy and Inclusion
Music therapy helps children in terms of expressing and understanding their emotions, developing social and communication skills and building self-esteem. The aim is not to teach musical skills although this may be a side-benefit. Music is used as an expressive language to communicate with. It does not require the children to have had any previous music tuition, although an interest in music may be helpful. Music therapy can help children with a wide range of needs including: At the Clapham Music Centre, an Inclusion programme is offered that teaches musical skills to children who may not be able to access general music tuition, in a supportive environment. LMS runs a drumming project at several special schools and Pupil Referral Units |
