Summary/Abstract: Family life education classes in Polish schools are carried out on the basis of theoretical assumptions included in the core curriculum, programmes, handbooks and didactic materials. They indicate not only the objectives and the content, but also the methods of achieving them. It is rightly considered important to activate students in multiple ways in the fifth and sixth form of the primary school, first to third forms of the lower secondary school and in upper secondary schools. This principle assumes stimulating the comprehensive activity of students by arranging situations that serve the purpose of learning about issues concerning marriage and family, discovering family-oriented values and experiencing and acting in a responsible manner. Therefore, it requires the application of appropriately selected, varied forms, methods and didactic means in the family life education classes. This will help to individualise the process of education and to efficiently implement curriculum objectives and contents, thus enhancing the scope of students’ knowledge and experiences, as well as developing family-oriented attitudes.
