This essay is a qualitative study whose purpose is to describe and understand the views of Principals and music teachers on the importance of framework factors for equivalent music education. The study has a hermeneutic approach and is based on a qualitative method with semi-structured interviews. The questions are based on the influence of framework factors on students' knowledge development in the music subject, in relation to equivalence. The research on which the study is based deals with equivalence in primary school and curriculum theory. The researcher has used literature in the form of the compulsory school curriculum, dissertations, scientific articles, and other publications.The study includes a principal from the middle of Sweden and two music teachers from the south of Sweden. All participants worked at different schools in different municipalities. All schools were high school schools with student enrolment from various middle schools within the municipality. The interviews were recorded and analysed from a framework factor theoretical perspective. The result did not provide clear answers but suggests that music teachers have a consensus that framework factors affect students' opportunities for knowledge development based on the curriculum guidelines. In this discussion, the author problematizes the preconditions for equivalent music education in primary school based on previous research in equivalence with a framework factor theoretical perspective. Factors that appear are lack of classrooms adapted and equipped for music lessons due to financial conditions, the school's organization, management, and culture and norms at each school.Key
