For decades, educational-artistic research has yielded results demonstrating the importance of teaching and learning art within the school context. This article reaffirms the notion that art education is pivotal for the comprehensive development of students. Art education encompasses the teaching and learning of art without distinction between its various forms: musical, theatrical, plastic, or visual. Integrality denotes the balanced and complete development of students across all facets of life, encompassing not only academic prowess but also physical, emotional, social, and cultural dimensions, nurturing a spectrum of life skills.
Access to comprehensive education is a fundamental right, yet for it to be universally attainable, society must recognize and advocate for it as such. Understanding this integrality entails acknowledging arts education as essential and indispensable for the holistic development of individuals, particularly during their school years; without it, such holistic development would be incomplete. The aesthetic experience stands out as a unique element of arts education, setting it apart from other domains of knowledge. This distinctive quality fosters the holistic development of students, contributing to their personal growth and enabling them to thrive fully and satisfactorily in society.
In conclusion, this article underscores the imperative of shifting societal paradigms to facilitate a more meaningful integration of arts education into school curricula. It also encourages continued research efforts in the field of arts education.
