Summary/Abstract: Change is an inherent part or social life. Its importance has grown considerably during the last half-century with social change becoming rapid and radical. The author considers the way a school functions in such conditions and what challenges are faced by teachers in their work. He discusses the stance of critical pedagogy expressed by Peter McLaren and proposals to transform schools formulated by Jesper Juul. On such a background, he presents the views of Polish authors and his own attitude towards pedagogical support for student development.
