Students with disabilities
Having a disability need not bar you from training as a music therapist, provided you are able to demonstrate the learning outcomes required by the programme and hence satisfy the requirements of the Health Professions Council.

We are committed to equal opportunities and supportive of people with disabilities who want to pursue music therapy training. Contact us before applying and we’ll help you decide if the training is right for you and what you can do to maximise your chances of meeting our requirements.
You need to declare any disabilities at the application stage so that we can work with you to identify suitable means of support. If you don’t declare disabilities at this stage it may be difficult for us to support you at a later stage.
We recognise that people’s levels of ability and general state of health can fluctuate and we aim to support students as effectively as possible throughout their training, through both pastoral care and learning support.
Our Manchester teaching base is fully wheelchair accessible. Our London teaching base is partially wheelchair accessible.
