ABSTRACT

With the continuous development of society and the improvement of people's living standards, high quality of life has become the theme of life, and music is an important part of high quality of life. In 2021, the General Office of the State Council of China issued the "Opinions on Further Reducing the Burden of Classwork and Off-Campus Training on Students in Compulsory Education" (the "Double Reduction" policy). The "double reduction" policy explicitly requires that time not used for extra classes on weekends be allocated to music, art and physical education, encourages students to study art (music and art), increases the time for art studies in primary and secondary schools, and allows art exams to enter the "new college entrance examination" model. Music education is the foundation of modern education, and it is indispensable for secondary school students. This paper conducts a study of secondary school music education in terms of music self-perception, school curriculum satisfaction, music activities, music training support, and learning participation. Specific problems and constraints that hinder the development of music education are identified, and feasible suggestions are made to solve these problems and promote the development of music education.
