This research aims to investigate the opinions of teachers in non-formal private music schools towards students with special needs, and to develop guidelines for organizing music learning for such students with special needs in non-formal private music schools in Thailand. The research adopts a mixed methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative research designs. The researcher collected questionnaires from 320 music teachers in non-formal private music schools across Thailand and conducted focus group discussions with 7 music experts to explore ways to enhance music learning management for students with special needs.
The result indicated that majority of the teachers had a level of knowledge that should be improved to understand and develop guidelines for organizing music learning for such students with special needs. The suggestions towards music teaching strategies can be divided into three aspects as the following: 1) Teachers are required to understands students with special needs in order to prepare teaching strategies effectively. 2) Teachers should establish teaching goals and serve as effective communicators between learners, parents, as well as doctors and therapists. 3) The development of teaching materials should be applied in order to properly guide the students, and there should be a workshop session to guide parents in order to support students with special needs.
