Summary/Abstract: The article focuses on the research of the implementation of the Concept for the Development of the Slovak Educational System in Hungary, the so-called Our Compass Concept, which was presented in 2017 by the National Slovak Self-Government in Hungary. After a short historical excursion of Slovak education in Hungary, the author focuses on the importance of Slovak education in Hungary for the preservation of the Slovak minority in this territory. It is for this reason that supporting the functioning of the Slovak school system is important. The article presents the support of education "from above" in the form of research on the implementation of the aforementioned concept. At the same time, the author supplements the research with a "bottom-up" approach, in which she presents feedback from Slovak teachers working in Hungary. The data from Slovak teachers come from a questionnaire survey in 2019, and in this study, questions were processed where the teachers expressed their opinions both on the aforementioned concept of the development of Slovak education in Hungary, as well as on the extent to which the selected measures contribute to the functioning of the school system where they work.
