The text presented herein deals with issues concerning the philosophy of education as a natural part of the philosophy and theory of education. The role of philosophy is demonstrated in the methods used in the course of teaching philosophy and ethics for social pedagogues and andragogues at the Institute of Pedagogical Sciences of the Tomáš Baťa University in Zlín. The author emphasizes that philosophy that has its roots in ancient cultures is very important even for professionals who provide lifelong assistance to people currently dealing with critical situations and poverty. Wherever philosophy speaks of possible extinction, let it be the impulse for pedagogues, above all, to endeavor to eliminate that possibility.
