Summary/Abstract: Considering the fact that most European countries have decades of experience in the work of alternative schools, this paper presents the research that pertains to preconditions for the development of alternative education in Serbia. The instrument applied has been created for the purpose of this research, and the sample includes 441 subjects (teachers, parents, and pedagogy students). The obtained results show that the subjects are generally poorly informed about alternative pedagogical concepts. The results also show that, unlike a significant number of pedagogy students, who express a positive attitude toward the need to increase the number of alternative schools in Serbia, the majority of teachers and parents are undecided on this issue. It is concluded that in order to improve the quality of education, it is very important to work on informing parents about alternative schools and on introducing content from the field of pedagogical and school pluralism into the curricula of teacher training faculties.
