Summary/Abstract: The main purpose of this article is to present the image of contemporary school, seen through the eyes of students participating in the survey carried out as a part of the project "Educational Policy of the City of Poznań 2030," coordinated by the City Department of Education. The purpose of the study was to learn about the experiences and opinions of male and female students of Poznań schools and to determine the extent in which these experiences facilitate adaptation process and to examine factors which may differentiate the outcomes. A total of 1043 male and female students participated in the study; ultimately, due to missing data, 936 surveys were included. The study took into account the variables of gender, stage of education, place of residence of the respondents and the mean grades obtained by them during the previous school year. The authors' assumption was that these variables may be relevant to the way the respondents perceive and experience the school environment, as well as their expectations. The research meant to give an answer to the question what kind of school young people want, indicating areas they consider to be deficient and in need of change.
