Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to present the profiles of the teachers of the Training School associated with the Pedagogium of Cracow and to show the role they played in the education of the future intellectual elite of Cracow. The paper describes the teachers who tied their professional life with the Training School, an important place for practical classes of the students of the State Pedagogium and the State Pedagogical College of Cracow. As an example one could present Rudolf Hajnos, who was the head of the School in the interwar period. The Training School of the Pedagogium of Cracow was located at 22 Straszewskiego Street and was initially a four-class elementary school. The list of schools prepared by Marian Falski in 1933 listed the school among the state lower general schools of seven-class learning cycle, nine teachers and 127 students. The school owned four modest classrooms and the teachers of the Training School are shown in a broad context of their pedagogical work and contribution to the learning process. Of the same importance are their passions and personal success in scientific and artistic fields. The paper is based on primary source research, supplemented by publications and interviews with graduates from the Training School.
