The aim of this essay has been to increase the knowledge of which resources there are in Compulsory school, their function and how they are experienced by teachers and students. By individual interviews I have examined teachers experiences of their work with students in need of support in core subjects. I have also examined how students experiences the help that they get and if they want to change anything. In my essay I have concentrated in a few main questions, such as; which resources Compulsory school uses, teachers work with students in needs of support in core subjects, the extension of students needs, how students experience the help that they get, how they feel about education in smaller groups and if there are any differences in needs, among students, connected to gender. Literature has earlier shown that there are too few resources in Compulsory school and that students in need of support doesn?t get the help that they need.

This paper treats the differences in terms of insurance between optional and Compulsory third party liability insurances. It also treats the purpose of the Compulsory third party liability insurances and their accordance with that purpose. The primary purpose of the optional third party liability insurance is to ensure the policyholder financial resources to cover possible claims for damages. The primary purpose of the Compulsory third party liability insurance is to render possible the compensation of a third party for damage done. The policyholders financial ability to pay damages is of subordinate interest, and the purpose of Compulsory third party liability insurances is thus twofold.

Non-Compulsory schools in Sweden should make use of the knowledge and experience that is available in society according to the aims and objectives of the Curriculum for the Non-Compulsory School System - Lpf 94.

My interest in the problem I have chosen has grown from my practise as a music teacher in Swedish Compulsory schools. It springs from my own reflection, that the content pupils meet during music lessons in year 4-6 of Compulsory school, seems to vary. My ontological and epistemological standpoints belong to a life-world-phenomenological way of thinkink. This kind of thinking implies that human beings are indissolubly connected to the world, which means that the only way to access the world is trough human beings lived experience. The aim of this study is to describe and analyse how music teachers, who work in years 4-6 of Compulsory school, talk about the subject music and its content in relation to the new curriculum, Lgr11.
