Summary/Abstract: In the article I analyse factors determining the scientific status of theory of education. An addition to the three elements recognized by methodologists of all social science disciplines namely: a separate subject of research, own terminology and developed research methodology I add new elements such as: a lexical database for other sciences, specialized journals, prestige and organizational culture of academic institutions, outstanding personalities in science, judgments and opinions issued by state control bodies and the scientific community. All these factors determine the degree of independence maturity and prestige of theory of education among other social sciences.
