Music Therapy

harpistAt Heritage House School we employ a specialist music teacher who works with all pupils across the school. Our music curriculum links closely to our communication curriculum as for many of our pupils’ music is a medium that encourages participation and involvement. Pat Loyd, our music teacher is also a music therapist and in addition to group sessions, will see pupils for individual therapy session following a full assessment.

Pat Lloyd is a qualified music therapist and teacher who has worked in the field of special needs for over 25 years, both in special schools and for the NHS, for more about her work and publication "Let's All Listen" please click here instrumental experimentation...

We have a range of exciting and stimulating equipment to enable all pupils to access music including 3 Soundbeams, resonance boards, instrumental tuition, Taiko drumming and choir.

We work closely with Soundabout, an organisation that provides on-going training and support to ensure we remain highly skilled and make effective use of the excellent music resources we have.
