Summary/Abstract: The national interests are a totality of durable values and political reasons for behavior in the foreign and internal affairs and this totality represents the intent of the nation for existence and prosperity. The national interest are the officially expressed, conscious, objective needs of the society resulting from the national values and aimed at the conservation, creation and achievement of favorable conditions for its stable and sustainable existence and development. The overview shows that despite the progress of the EU countries in most of the key aims for reform and update of the education, still more efforts are requested for the achievement of equality. The educational level is important for the determination of the social results. It is almost three times more likely that people with only primary education live in poverty and social exclusion compared to the people with university degree. In the EU the investments in the education have recovered from the economic crisis and have increased in the recent years.
