Summary/Abstract: In the period of 1999–2012 reform of education and administrative division of the country took place in Poland. The changes of educational infrastructure and its utiliza-tion in the Lower Silesia against Polish total was primarily analyzed. Particular attention was paid to rural areas, because education of their citizens clearly differs from the nation-al level. The aim of the study was to assess whether the young people of the village have educational opportunities similar to those of the people of the country in general and where the differences in the level of their education occur. The analysis included the education of children and youth from upbringing in nursery to finishing secondary education. Based on the CSO data demonstrated partial improvement of conditions and educational opportunities, including rural areas, where for example, majority of the children were covered by pre-school education.
