Abstract

top
After regaining independence Polish educational system was organized according to the concept developed by teaching circles and based on the educational systems left by three different partitioners. During 20 years many corrections had been made until the introduction of the fundamental educational reform in 1932. In this article syllabi of mathematics taught in secondary school, their subsequent changes and social expectations of mathematical education are being described. Quite detailed analysis of educational systems, backed up with opinions from the teaching press of the time and later, allows the statement that the atmosphere of teaching of mathematics in the interwar period was as good as it never was before or after it.
