The author poses many important questions. Is it justified to identify conservative thought with the traditional didactics of Herbart? Is it possible to combine conservative thought in education with modern didactics? The author’s thesis is that it is possible to construct a modern school, full of didactic innovations, which is guided by the axiological compass of conservative values and functions within a certain framework of conservative principles regulating its activity. She believes that it is possible to reconcile the conservative idea with modern didactic thought, provided that one clearly defines what is the goal and what is the way to achieve it. In the article she develops issues of defining what conservatism can be in relation to school. The paper also describes what modern education means. Finally, it identifies and discusses an example of a school implementation that reconciles a conservative axiological and organizational framework with a modern approach to teaching and learning processes.}, doi = {10.4467/24504564PMP.22.002.16055}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/polska-mysl-pedagogiczna/article/nowoczesna-szkola-konserwatywna-otwarcie-perspektywy} }
