Classroom music from 2014: the new National Curriculum | Classical Music.

It says that “the purpose of studying music is to ‘engage and inspire pupils to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians, and so increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement,’ so that pupils eventually develop ‘a critical engagement with music, allowing them to compose, and to listen with discrimination to the best in the musical canon’”
Sounds good? As guitar teachers, do we always keep these ideals in mind?
