In the debate concerning education, particular attention is paid to the structural changes in the system of schooling, as if the quality of the educational process relied upon them. The ignorance connected with such systemic reform is the belief that it is enough to change certain elements; to lengthen one thing, shorten another, free up one solution, restrict others, for education to fulfill the aims that have been laid down for it. However, this is one of the mistakes most often made by politicians, who are guided by macro-political and macro-economic interests, and who forget about the role of those factors that actually do have an effect on the quality of learning and teaching. but maybe it is not that they are concerned about quality but rather a reduction of costs, which can then be passed on to learners and their parents? In this article, I undertake a critical analysis of the macro-politics of education in Poland, in addition to the essentially unjustified manipulation, as well as ostensible nature of the educational reforms.
