Abstract	Polish education is described in terms of its history, structure, legal policies, and reforms. After having been controlled by various parties since the late 18th century, Polish education is now consolidated under two administrative bodies, one for elementary and secondary education and one for higher education. At all levels, education is free. Polish is the primary language of instruction. Four years of noncompulsory preschool are available, followed by eight years of compulsory elementary grades for which the curriculum is uniform throughout the country. During the four or five years of secondary education, students may attend general education lyceums and post-lyceum schools, technical/vocational schools, or basic vocational schools, depending on their plans for university study or immediate entry into agricultural or industrial trades. Teacher education begins in special secondary level study centers and continues at the university level. Higher education requires four to six years of study for the first degree, depending on the institution and field of study. A table shows 20 general and technical universities with locations and with fields of study, called faculties. Admission requires a secondary school Certificate of Maturity and a passing grade on an entrance examination. Reforms planned for 1978 include equal eight-year elementary education for urban and rural youth, teacher training, and redesigned curriculum. (AV)
