Abstract
The education system for teaching singing or playing musical instruments has a long tradition in the Czech Republic. State-guaranteed studies organized in elementary art schools provide students with the basics of education that these starting artists can later develop further at conservatories and universities. Thanks to equal treatment and an extensive network of schools, more than 10% of the total population of Czech citizens aged between 5 and 18 attend the music field. The study aims to find out how many students properly complete their music studies with a leaving certificate and which school years are critical for the successful completion of studies in musical performance or singing. The research was conducted in the Czech Republic at the Elementary Art School in Ostrava, Sokolská třída 15, through a case study of qualitative research and document analysis. The documents included statistical data of 938 pupils studying at the surveyed school during 2007–2024. The research results found by analyzing the documents are divided by individual musical instruments and grades of study.
