As such, it should be an integral part of its environment and keep up with time. This paper discusses the position of primary school in our country in relation to the countries of the European Union and beyond i.e. how far away we are from our environment and how far we keep up with innovations in elementary education in Europe, which innovations are introduced to our elementary schools and in what way. A survey was presented with aim to examine the attitudes of primary school pupils of final grades about how much and in what areas they were trained for innovation during schooling. Based on the survey of 100 elementary school pupils from the area of Surcin, obtained results show that elementary school students consider that they are not educated enough for innovation.
