E-skills are in our times seen as key competences that support fulfillment and development, social inclusion, active citizenship and employment. The aim of the paper is to identify determinants of information technology education in the school system. This goal has been achieved by using results of research conducted in 2011 in primary, secondary and post-secondary schools from Mazowieckie region. The research was carried out within a project "Digital divide in the Mazowsze" by the Institute of Labour and Social Studies under the Human Capital Operational Programme. Its results enabled diagnosis of areas defining the scope and quality of education of information technology at schools, including IT infrastructure and ways of utilization of IT.
