Summary/Abstract: Based on data from a social survey conducted in the framework of the project “Educational Inequality and Social Chances: Strategic Objectives of the Reform of Bulgarian Secondary Education”, the article reflects on two questions: 1) what are the basic principles of the institutional organization of educational practices whereby the school contributes to the production and reproduction of social inequalities? and 2) in which categories should we think of the alternative social function of the kind of school that does not support and does not legitimate the division of society into privileged and unprivileged, but instead contributes to the stability of the social connection between different groups and strata.
