VIEWS ON THE ELEMENTARY MUSIC EDUCATION IN
MONTENEGRO AND SLOVENIA
Abstract
Music education system in Montenegro is similar to those in the neighboring countries from this
region, which we inherited from the former Yugoslavia. As the general educational system was
changed and reformed, a need for redefining elementary music schools to introduce some
innovative solutions into its plans and programs, emerged over the past period. In Montenegro, this
primarily referred to transition from a six-year to a nine-year music school, considering that
education system reform brought with it a nine-year duration of the general education school.
Numerous debates concerning the new concept of the music school took place in the academic
community, where many stood by the “old” system which, according to them, didn’t have
significant shortcomings. However, Bureau for Education Services of Montenegro, as an institution
responsible for music schools too, initiated procedures of developing new curricula to be
implemented starting with academic year 2016/2017. In this work, we will show some of the basic
characteristics introduced by the reform and try to make a comparison with music school system in
Slovenia, having in mind that it was also a key guidance for the reform processes in general
education schools which were started in 2001. The question is what the extent of the similarities and
differences found is and have our experiences in practice been really oriented on students and their
needs. An increasing number of children have been dropping out of music schools in Montenegro in
the previous years, or after completing the elementary music education they stop engaging in music,
even at the amateur level. Therefore, a question is raised as to what needs to be changed, improved
and done so that our schools go hand in hand with time and provide a good educational basis both to
future professional musicians that will continue with secondary music education and to those who
will make up a musically educated audience?
Keywords: music school, curriculum, Montenegro, Slovenia, education reform.
