The article aims to introduce the topic of epilepsy as one of the most common neurological diseases in children and adolescents, including children and adolescents attending school. Students with epilepsy are included in the group of students with special educational needs. The specificity and the treatment of this disease can adversely affect the daily functioning in the school environment of students with this chronic disease. Thus, this requires teachers and educators to be familiar with the topic of this disease and to be aware of the impact it can have on, among other things, the cognitive processes of students with epilepsy, their relationships with peers, and their mental health. The purpose of this paper is to present the available research conducted in Poland among pedagogical staff on knowledge and attitudes toward students with epilepsy. Despite medical advancements and an increase in knowledge about epilepsy, the results of research conducted in Poland among teachers indicate the need for further propagation of scientifically proven knowledge about the disease, especially among those who have contact with students in educational settings.
