Summary/Abstract: In the text there is confrontated Comenius’ understanding of a school as a workshop of humanity with so called inclusive school. Workshop of humanity is a place where life wisdom is achived through education, which has its limitation for Comenius as well. Inclusive school aims to include all dimensions of otherness, because heterogenity is for this concept enriching principle in all circumstances. However, it encounters specific challenges of education, especially of pupils with intellectual disabilities and pupils of Roma origin. Assessment of these pupils has serious flaws. Their didactical-methodological support is not processed at all and adhesed on a declaration of formal requirements. The Czech image of inclusive school is an ideological construct that is promoted politically. And therefore it misses the educationally argumented school as a workshop of humanity.
