In School C, music was the least important subject, consistent with perceptions reported in past studies.
“In School C, students' perceived importance of music remained consistent with perceptions reported in past studies (Harvey, 1984;Stables and Wikeley, 1997) with music being the least important subject.”

Previous research shows that music typically appears as the least important subject alongside other arts, mainly because of career and future employment concerns.
“This finding is well aligned with previous research, as in a number of relevant studies, music typically appears as the least important subject alongside other areas of the arts (Harvey, 1984;Stables and Wikeley, 1997;Lamont & Maton, 2008) mainly because of career and future employment related concerns (Stables and Wikeley, 1997;Wright 2002).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
