The study, which was conducted on school teachers from all over Slovenia, examines the arts and culture status of primary school teachers, teachers’ views about primary school education in terms of the inclusion of arts and culture topics and their opinion about the implementation of the aims of arts and cultural education in the planned and operational curricula. Results show that primary school teachers do not consider spiritual, cultural and aesthetic values as very important. The teachers think that pupils are most attentive to intermedia culture and that in primary school education more attention should be paid to reading culture, the performing arts and cultural heritage. They often achieve most of the arts and cultural education aims in their work. However, they pay less attention to aims such as investigating and expressing the cultures of other nations and developing cultural identity awareness.
