At Northern Counties School, we have a Nordoff & Robbins music therapist who delivers sessions two days per week. Sessions are available to learners across the school and a mixture of individual, small group, and full class group sessions are offered. The sessions are person-centred and led by the learners – sessions are offered in addition to the music curriculum which is delivered by the music teacher.
Nordoff and Robbins is the UK’s largest music therapy charity, with a unique approach shaped by more than 60 years of practice. The approach is based on the power of musical participation. Working one-to-one or with small groups, therapists create a platform for learners to express themselves.
