Summary/Abstract: The article discusses the issue of working conditions of female teachers in public mainstream education in the Second Polish Repub- lic. The analysis is based on selected press publications, archival materials, and statistical data. The author studies the question of whether the state pol- icy of the Second Polish Republic promoted the involvement of women in the mainstream education structures and strengthened their professional stand- ing. The work focuses both on the advantages of working as a folk teacher and women’s opportunity for self-fulfillment in mainstream education and on the examples of structural inequality in the access to the aforementioned career.
