Summary/Abstract: This article approaches the Spanish Language Olympiad project in the context of equality in education. It begins with a brief description of the Olympiads, role within the Polish educational system and in the frame of the latest tendency to focus on the most talented pupils. Subsequently, we seek to consider talent theoretically, from the perspective of “equal opportunities”. Finally, in the third part, we present several solutions – as well of formal and didactic nature – elaborated within the Spanish Language Olympiad project, that are worth being recommended as equitable ones.
