Abstract
The article attempts to analyze the functioning of Polish schools in the interwar period in the eastern regions of the Second Polish Republic. The common stereotypes, rooted also in literature, projected a popular image of backwardness, in comparison with the population from other parts of Poland. For that reason, education was determined as a high priority after 1918. The schools in eastern regions, beside performing their educational function, also disseminated information and political propaganda. The teaching conditions in such schools were also complex, given the national and ethnic composition of children. Ksawery Pruszyński in his reportage Prawo do Wołynia demonstrates that not all efforts were equally satisfactory.
