The article makes an attempt to characterize a Polish language teacher who works in a secondary school. The author uses Polish les­sons reports which teachers fill out and tries to make generalizations concerning methodological solutions intro­duced by the teachers.  Opinions of Polish language teachers who implement objectives developed as a part of ‘Tools in Action’ programme were used to analyse such elements of a lesson as: motivation situation, the topic of a lesson or innovations introduced by the teachers to already prepared lesson plans. The teachers’ comments and suggestions which were included in the reports allowed to characterize the image of a Polish language teacher and to describe selected areas of lessons. Due to their realization the perception of an educational thought inscribed within the idea of teaching as extensive humane project is possible during the Polish lessons in second­ary schools.

It is known that the development of a country potential refers not only to its economic and political factors but is also associated with its human resources. The providing of appropriate conditions for professional fulfillment should be one of the most important issues of the modern society. Due to historical aspects and successful reforms the system of education in England takes the leading position in professional world. The article deals with the prospects of specialized education in England. It discusses the reasons that led to the foundation of new vocational educational establishments in this country. It analyses the development of specialist schools and defines the peculiarities of City Technology College which were first established in 1988 bringing the world of education and industry together. The major historical stages of vocational education development are observed and the new concept of practical learning in City Technology Colleges is described. CTCs teach subjects of the National Curriculum with a specific focus on science and technology. They offer a wide range of vocational qualifications and develop close links with local employers. The article focuses on the problem how to provide proper working conditions for future specialists. It highlights the successful try to combine academic learning and working experience which brings numerous opportunities for students aged between 11 and 18. City Technology Colleges in England offer the excellent chance to get a personal and professional development in modern technological environment. The financial support from local enterprises encourages both students and teachers to progress. Parents play an important role in the majority of CTC decision making. These vocationally focused schools operate outside of local authority control and offer academic courses as well as skill-based learning. Since 2003 most CTC have obtained Academy status as they equip students both with realistic working skills and the foundations for higher education. Further research of this issue may result in the beneficial transformation of specialized education in Ukraine which will help future specialists meet the modern employment requirements and build a successful career.

In the article, based on an analysis of the sources, it was found out that an important component of the socio-political and cultural processes of the 20–30-ies of the XXth century, initiated by the Bolsheviks, was a policy of «indigenization», aimed at providing the people of the Soviet republics with specific opportunities to develop their national culture and languages. In Ukraine the policy «indigenization» was called «Ukrainization». Educational work was declared by the Bolsheviks to be the third (after the military and economic) front of the struggle for socialism, but at the same time it became the main base for the implementation of the policy of Ukrainization. Officially the course on «ndigenization» was taken in 1923 at the XII Congress of the Bolshevik party. But even before its decision in September 1920, the Sovnarkom of the USSR announced the Ukrainization of schools, instructing the People’s Commissariat of education to develop urgently a plan for the development of education institutions of all levels with Ukrainian language of teaching. By the Council of people’s commissars was established the Central Ukrainization Commission. For the practical implementation of the developed activities the district commissions on Ukrainization were created in the districts. The position of District inspector on Ukrainization was introduced. To achieve the Ukrainization of schools it was necessary to prepare qualified teachers. In Glukhiv district teaching staff was systematically assessed and for those, who did not speak Ukrainian, appropriate training was organized. There was established a period, mainly for one year, for teachers to make a transition into Ukrainian as a language of teaching. Due to the targeted efforts of Glukhiv Inspectorate of public education all the schools in several districts were turned into Ukrainian. These results showed significant achievements in the development of Ukrainian national education on the territory Glukhiv district. It should be noted that Ukrainization of the public education system did not lead to the total use of Ukrainian and elimination of other languages. On the contrary, it contributed to the development of national schools, their actual rise in the second half of the 20-ies. The data of Inspectorate of education testify about the preservation of a network of national schools in Glukhiv district. Besides, the Russian-speaking population of Glukhiv district, willing to defend their privileged position at any cost, further defended the dominance of Russian culture. Failure to comply with orders of the Ukrainian authorities, sabotage were the usual means of struggle against the Ukrainian culture. Significant disadvantages in this case were observed in general education. So, in the course of checking the knowledge of Ukrainian language among the teachers in two districts, held in 1928, it was found out that only 8% know language enough. In the late 20-ies Ukrainization faded into the background, and the subsequent period finally nullified the results.

The article presents the idiosyncrasies of the frequency of syntactic structures used by secondary school students (aged 13-15). It is drawn on the basis of research carried out in a secondary school in Kalisz. A total of 4,021 syntactic structures from 276 compositions written by students from two classes were analysed in order to present phenomena typical of the ultimate syntactic structures. The data was collected for two school years (2011/2012 and 2012/2013) and indicates the most frequently and generally used syntactic structures as well as the less popular and more specific ones. In addition, a comparison of the results and transposing them to a timeframe makes it possible to present the evolution in the syntax of compositions written by secondary school students. An analysis of the material has also led to specifying the types of syntactic errors and their frequency.

This study was aimed at surveying the need for HIV-VCT services in secondary schools. Descriptive survey method was used in this study. The target popula- tion of this study comprised all in-school adolescents in Kwara State. Samples of 300 respondents were selected for the study. The purposive sampling technique was used in selecting in-school adolescents between ages 12 and 20. These adolescents were stratified based on age, religion and gender. Through a simple random sampling technique, one hundred respondents were selected from each of the senatorial districts (Kwara North, Kwara Central, Kwara South) in Kwara State. The instrument used was the Need for HIV Voluntary Counselling and Testing Services in Secondary Schools Questionnaire (NHVCTSS). Results of this study revealed that there was no significant difference in the need for HIV- VCT services in secondary schools on the basis of gender and age. However, a significant difference was found on the basis of religion and school type. As such, it was recommended that counsellors should be trained in the basic concepts of HIV as a compulsory component of their professional curriculum to facilitate capacity in HIV-VCT services.

Hungarian educational policy took a sharp turn in 2010, after the change of regime. The study analyses how pupil/parent preferences and enrolment chances have changed since 2000 in secondary education. The core of the study are KIFIR databases. Their task is to conduct secondary admission processes and to register applications. We have also used the data of the national com- petence survey to investigate the relationships between social background and student performance. While the strong government policy prefers vocational training, students and parents tend to turn away from it. However, the chances to enter secondary school have decreased, thus reducing the chances to enter higher education.

Since the September 1st 2013 science teachers in secondary schools: liceum (comprehensive high school), and technikum (senior vocational high school) will introduce a new subject – the Science. This subject raises a lot of emotions in the pedagogical environment for several reasons: - Science Core Curriculum differs in its structure from the curricula of other subjects, - There is an obligation to implement only the curriculum learning outcomes not its content, - Science cannot be taken at the final external examination (matriculation), - There is a lack of interesting, innovative programs to teach this subject, - There is a continuous shortage of teaching tools for the implementation of Science subject. So should we be afraid of Science? No, we just have to understand it and make friends with it. In this paper you will find information about the recipients of this course, teachers qualified to teach Science, the number of hours devoted to teaching the subject as well as about the Science Core Curriculum and its possible interpretations and methodological guidance on its implementation and evaluation activities.

The article is devoted to the necessity of transformation of Ukrainian system of higher education under the influence of the conception of “A New Ukrainian School” adopted in 2016. The fact is that the Law of Ukraine “On Higher Education” (2014) does not contain any positions which would allow reformation of the system of university education with taking into consideration new accents of the secondary school reforms. The author analyzes the main concepts and goals of the forthcoming school reform, principles of competence approach to education. The drawbacks of the existing system of higher education are defined and the basic ways of their withdrawal are depicted. The peculiarities of teaching and development of a new generation of students which should be taken into account are notified. Differences and absence of succession in gaining secondary and higher education are displayed. In fact the conceptual positions of the school reform are based on the implementation of twelve-year studying at secondary school when the twelfth form is equaled to the first year at the university. In such a case the time of studying to gain a bachelor degree will be shortened to three years instead of four. As a result it will be necessary to make certain changes in university education. Shortening of academic hours caused by the three-year studying will result in dismissing of a great number of university professors. It would be necessary to change radically academic programs and curricula because universities would be obliged to train a new generation of school teachers who would teach integrated courses such as for example physics, chemistry, biology and astronomy. It would be necessary to create a new generation of textbooks to provide for the new integrated courses and this process requires a lot of time for selecting potential authors, training them, collecting the team of experts etc. To succeed the school reform universities would be obliged to get rid of the obsolete lecture-seminar system and replace it with a tutor system which allows developing students’ critical thinking, creativity, ability for self-development, professional competence. Learning process should become productive instead of now existing reproductive when students retell the materials of the textbooks or lectures. A lot of other changes are to be made in the system of higher education in Ukraine from the viewpoint of “A new Ukrainian School”, and all these changes require special financing on the part of the state.

The article uncovers the specifics of organization of health-saving environment of secondary school. The main factors of effective implementation of health-saving environment are analyzed. Its essence is defined. The value of health-saving environment as a condition of heuristic education is revealed. The educational technology, which provides saving the health of students and comprehensive development, is characterized. Creation of a health-saving environment in a secondary school provides the organization of safe and comfortable environment for children at school, using preventive methods and tools of the impact on children, harmonious natural environment, and humanistic logic in organization of primary school children’s life with consideration of their needs, interests, individual characteristics and potential of each student. It is shown that heuristic model of education oriented on the creation of harmonious natural environment, which provides self-realization of a personal child’s potential. The teacher should give preference to theatrical lessons, concert-lessons, tours-lessons, lessons of psychological relief and builds cooperation based on subject –subject relationship, dialogue communication style, tolerant attitude, and cooperation with students. An important factor is the assessment of educational achievements of students, which focuses on comparing the student with himself (not with other students), with the changes, which took place in it and desire of teacher to transfer accents from the control and evaluation of students to self-monitoring and self-evaluation. It is advisable to use teaching methods that encourage students to creative activities, for example, visual-figurative elements of training that promote individual and emotional living and understanding of knowledge, stimulate imagination, development of memory, thinking, emotional, sensual and will areas. The results of research has allowed to draw certain conclusions, namely: organization of health-saving environment provides no direct or indirect harm to the health of students, safe and comfortable conditions for children at school, provides an individual trajectory of training and education of a child, prevents stress, overload, fatigue pupils, etc.

LP2I - Lycée Pilote Innovant International (transl. the Innovative Pilot International High School) is a French secondary school in Jaunay-Clan, a small town near Poitiers in France. This high school, just like any other school in France, employs universal methods in three thematic areas: the humanities, science and economic &social sciences. It is additionally oriented towards new technologies. LP2I stresses the importance of students’ autonomy and aims at developing students’ interests in various fields. How are these goals achieved? ACF – Activités Complémentaires de Formation (transl. supplementary classes, trainers) are designed to develop creativity and responsibility through the creation of an interdisciplinary project related to the interests of the student. In turn, under the BAS (Besoins, Approfondissement, Soutien) students can attend afternoon classes, compensatory activities or classes which allow them to deepen their knowledge of the given subject. In this paper, I discuss how these projects are launched, as well how they benefit the students.

One of the main assumptions of Complex Dynamic Systems Theory (CDST) is that internally complex language subsystems develop non-linearly while entering different kinds of supportive, competitive, conditional, or dual relationships which are characterised by trade-offs caused by learners’ restricted cognitive processing, especially in foreign language speech. The present paper belongs to a short series of articles which examines various aspects of the development of L2 English speech at secondary school on basis of the same longitudinal, exploratory, and corpus-based case study. The aim of this paper is to investigate the dynamics of the relationships between fluency and both syntactic and lexical complexity in the speech of a good, average, and poor language learner at the level of secondary school. Syntactic complexity was investigated in terms of general sentence complexity, subordination, coordination, and nominalisation, whereas lexical complexity was construed in terms of lexical density, sophistication, and variation. In general, the results indicated predominantly supportive relationships between fluency and different measures of syntactic complexity but competitive or dual relationships between fluency and lexical complexity. However, the relationships between the selected variables fluctuated over time and often differed in the case of a good, average, and poor language learner.

The self-creation of modern youth in the world of permanent change is closely related to the existing socio-cultural conditions and the psychosocial condition resulting from the experienced developmental stage. The changeability and relativity of the reality in which young people exist affects the process of searching for their “I”, which becomes more and more undefined, requiring constant updating, and changing. Therefore, it becomes necessary to undertake analyses of identity formation as the main developmental task of the youth period, with particular emphasis on the current socio-cultural reality, which is not insignificant for this process. The article presents the results of scientific research on the subjective aspect of the sense of identity of contemporary high school youth (out of the general population the author selected a population of 439 students of secondary schools, aged 15-19, located in the territory of the Wielkopolskie [Greater Poland] Voivodeship in Poland, random selection) measured by the TST (Twenty Statements Test). The presented results of research on the subjective aspect of the sense of identity of secondary school youth reveal an image of this age group as one that is still searching for its own identity core, and undergoing the process of implementation of developmental tasks belonging to the stage of adolescence. The analyses of the research results show the specificity of the process of shaping identity by young people in modern conditions. This issue is the main goal of the research presented in the article.

The aim of this article is to present the results of a sociological study diagnos-ing the reasons and circumstances for the choice of French as a second foreign language by Polish youth in secondary schools. In our study, we focused on two groups of factors. The first of these concerns systemic solutions that affect the position and perception of French as a second foreign language taught in secondary schools as a consequence of the organization of foreign language teaching in Polish schools. The second group of factors is related to students themselves and, more specifically, to social representations they have about French and its learning, language biography and experiences stemming from contacts with French beoynd school. Our goal was to determine if and how these factors have the power to influence the motivation to study French in secondary schools. The study was a survey and included a sample of over 500 secondary school students from Warsaw and nearly 400 secondary school students from the Świętokrzyskie Province.

The article is a project of literary classes addressed to high school students, devoted to discussing the theme of the Seine drowned woman, a mysterious figure found at the end of the 19th century, whose death mask – due to a delicate smile – became popular all over the world. The story of an anonymous teenager has inspired writers, poets, playwrights, philosophers, painters, architects, and journalists of various times and spaces. She fascinated, among others, Stanisław Grochowiak, Mela Muter, Antoni Kaminski and Aleksander Gierymski, as well as the literary scholar Stanisław Rosiek, who in his article, writing about the importance of death masks in the culture of the nineteenth century, also referred to the figure of the girl.
