Arts Therapies in Educational Systems

Schools are powerful places for healing and growth. In my role at the Ministry of Education, I work closely with students, therapists, and educators to support meaningful arts-based work in schools.

Children are incredibly adaptable beings. They learn, thrive, experience challenges, and heal; their development occurs in real-life, everyday situations. In my country, we have a wonderful privilege: the opportunity to support the needs of special education students within their regular school environment. However, implementing school-based therapy is not easy for either the educational staff or the therapists involved. Significant efforts are being made within the Israeli education system to integrate creative arts therapy into schools. I am honoured to share a few contributions regarding these efforts.
