One of the basic ideas in the modern education system in the Republic of Macedonia is increasing the quality of education through the concept, “child–friendly school.” In 2006, the Ministry of Education and Science (MES) and the office of UNICEF introduced the approach child–friendly school (CFS). In this way, our country joined the countries around the world and led the initiative in eastern Europe to introduce a holistic approach, oriented to a child in the reform of education in several schools and in the whole educational system. The school’s capacity to permanent training and supervisory support and to initiate project activities is aimed at developing several dimensions, which includes inclusivity too. Besides inclusivity, children with complex needs get the opportunity to be educated in specialized schools. Considering the fact that music contributes to the development of children, especially those with special needs, and to better results in other areas of educational content, in this text, we are interested in knowing how and in what way the benefits of music education are used. For this purpose, in our case studies were included educational institutions for children with special needs in the capital city and the teaching plan and program for the music education subject. The analysis showed that there is large space and necessity for using music as the most flexible and functional tool in the educational process of this population.
