Sažetak
The focus of this paper are rights of music school students, in particular their right to participation in the educational process of learning a musical instrument and appreciation of their opinions in this regard. The study involved 206 respondents, 53 teachers and 153 students of Varaždin Music School. As many as 56.86 % of the surveyed students and 66.04 % of teachers think that it is necessary that there are special rights of children in relation to adults. Only 1.96 % of students are aware of the Convention on the Rights of the Child (85.62 % are not familiar with it), compared to 30.20 % of teachers (43.40% are not familiar with it). A total of 28.76 % of students and 43.40 % of teachers are unable to quote any given children’s right. The respondent male students have expressed that to them rights they have at school are more important than their duties (responsibilities), which is statistically significant higher if compared with the responses provided by female respondents. Another statistically significant difference between the attitudes of teachers and those of students has been noticed: every child has the right to music education, when the student’s rights are respected the quality of teaching how to play an instrument is better (students have given higher estimates); students do not take part in planning their development of music playing skills, students always choose at least one piece they play, students’ opinions regarding music playing are not taken into account (higher estimates given by teachers). Students and teachers are mostly satisfied with the exercise of children’s rights in music school, although they are not sufficiently familiar with them, which points to the need for an additional effort in this field – with regard to both groups. Although children’s rights in music school are largely respected, there is still room for improvement.
