The following article aims to cover a major subject of values, value rating and axiological upbringing of junior high school youth in Poland. The key point of axiological education is the process of coming to certain values, the selection of values, developing their hierarchy, living by them, thus, making them reality. The impact of axiological education results in one’s fulfillment – a mature personality fully capable of communicating and social interaction. During the period of growing up, called adolescence, values become more and more important, and the process of shaping general life rules, the hierarchy of values in everyday life gets particularly active. Forming a “moral backbone” of a young person takes place during their personal, cognitive, emotional and social development. Since young people at this stage do not have their own autonomy, subjectivity and sense of self-determination, they cannot be left by themselves without a certain role model, to be observed and copied in life. This is where the need for conveying true, tried and tested content stems from. That is a principal task for the school which should promote clear rules, convictions and values, so that young people can grow up and develop their humanity.
