Summary/Abstract: In the article the analysis of the issues of justification of the right for equality in education has been presented (understood as the right for equality in being educated). Presented analyses refer to some issues related to this topic, such as the problem of relational and normative notions of equality and the right for education; the problem of the possibility of justifying the right for equality in education; justification of that law in the Polish and international legislation. Selected historical issues (i.e. attempts to justify the right for equality in education on the basis of the broader philosophical thoughts) and practical issues (i.e. the barriers in its implementation) have been also emphasized.
