Summary/Abstract: Upbringing is an aid in overcoming weaknesses and striving for the fullness of humanity. It consists, in its deepest nature, in valuing the individual, which is infinite, and, thus, in considering formation as a process that is never finished, a work that is subject to failure, unpredictable, yet concrete and alive. The article outlines issues concerning the implementation of the educational function, with particular reference to the period of remote education in relation to the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, as well as basic issues concerning the so-called ethical sensitivity in the pedagogical profession. It points out, among other things, the problem of the ethics of the teaching profession, the importance of the educational function in the era of hurried culture, the pursuit of diplomas and qualifications – not infrequently at the expense of moral values. Education has been portrayed as a kind of call to assist the student in integral development, but also in the face of unforeseen, exceptional situations, which undoubtedly include the COVID-19 pandemic.
