The faithful of the Church are at the same time citizens of a state. As a result, they are bound by law of the two societies to which they belong. Education, as a very essential part of human good, is of interest to the two authorities: state government and church hierarchy. Unfortunately, relations between state and Church authorities in this field are not free of tensions. Both state and church lawmakers must be aware of the situation, and try to draft law that would expedite not a hostile interaction but rather cooperation in this field. The paper will present current legal regulations concerning education in Poland (Catholic Church and Polish state) and offer some postulates for both sides, helping to establish better relations and protect religious freedom.
