Izvleček:Decentralization, school autonomy, professional development, the national exams, school evaluations, revisions of the curricula, and increased support for early education were among the most important changes implemented in the Polish education system from 1999 to 2015. Although the current government restored the old structure of the school system, limited its support for early education, and is attempting to increase its power over schools, it is hard to take rights once given to key stakeholders. The Polish education system still benefits from decentralized governance and school autonomy, while its complexity requires additional efforts. Overall, the successful Polish education reforms relied on decentralized implementation and involvement of local actors. They established a modern education system with dispersed responsibility and multiple governance layers.
