Summary/Abstract: In this article, we analyse the religiosity and secularisation processes of secondary school youth on several selected levels: religious affiliation, changes inreligiosity, belief in a personal God, compulsory and non-compulsory religious practices, i.e. personal prayer. These analyses are based on the results of a so-ciological survey as part of the research project ‘Religious education of Polishyouth – current state, opportunities and challenges’, conducted in Novemberand December 2022 and January 2023. The study involved 1,672 male andfemale students from secondary schools across Poland. The results of the studyconfirm the increasingly dynamic secularisation processes.
