Summary/Abstract: It is not possible “going in for” and understanding pedagogy and the pedagogical thought without their references to the meta-pedagogical assumptions, especially in the field of philosophy understood as the most primordial reflection on the reality, i.e. what is. Since the beginning of the philosophical thought, the two opposing philosophical traditions have been seen: realism and idealism. They have different ontology, epistemology, anthropology and axiology, which determine the assumptions (basis) of the specific pedagogy as well as thought and pedagogical action. The presented article shows in the sketchy way, the realistic assumptions of the integral nursery pedagogy of the blessed Edmund Bojanowski, thanks to them it is adequate (corresponding with the facts) and open to still changing times and challenges, at the same time with the ability of preserving its identity.
