The Polish Education System

Key facts
In a Polish school, a typical day involves:
Morning Assembly: students gather for announcements and activities.
Class Periods: they usually last 45 minutes to an hour. Students are taught regular subjects as well as other subjects (ethics/religion or practical skills such as Home Economics)
Breaks: Between two class periods to relax and have a snack.
Lunch: Students don’t have a lot of time to eat (less than an hour) so they either eat at the cafeteria or bring packed lunches from home.
Afternoon Classes
Extracurricular Activities: students can practice sports, arts, music, or be part of academic clubs.
Physical Education: Scheduled classes for sports and physical activities.
Class Council Meetings: Periodic gatherings to discuss school matters and community choices.
Preparation for Examinations: Particularly relevant in upper secondary schools.
End of the School Day: at the beginning of the afternoon.
