Summary/Abstract: A comparative overview of geographical contents in the first cycle of compulsory primary education in Serbia and the European Union countries provides an insight into the current state of affairs, and the developmental tendencies characteristic of European educational systems. The results gained will be immediately applicable in practice provided they are taken into consideration in the very process of the reform of the overall educational system in the Republic of Serbia, and especially of the Primary National Curriculum and its segment related to geographical contents. In particular, we emphasize the comparative approach, which this research has been based on and which we expect to contribute to further improvement of the educational system in Serbia and its harmonization with the educational systems of European countries. The findings resulting from the mentioned comparison of geographical syllabi will be a useful step forward towards European standards, which Serbia is expected to reach.
