Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to provide information about how identity is formed in relation to civic education. The author of this study was inspired by Juha Hämiläinen's thesis, which claims that social pedagogy should become the main tool for building citizenship. Building an identity is a lifelong process, and adolescence is one of the most important and critical periods in this. The diversity of the social environment, the school and classroom climate have an impact on forming the identity of teenagers, and besides their personal identity, attention is also paid to the formation of their social and cultural identity. The article is a study that focuses on defining the concepts of identity, social and cultural identity and the relationship between identity formation and education. Civic education plays an important role here and should guide the students to take responsibility for their lives. Therefore, the following text deals with the concepts of secondary school education, the secondary school curriculum and civic competences. Based on a study of selected authors, the following study introduces concepts of identity in relation to cultural identity and conducts an analysis of the framework educational programs, since there is a space here for socio-pedagogical influence on the formation of cultural identity and the development of tolerance with regard to worldwide diversity.
