Since the last third of the 20th century, schools have been losing their exclusive position of a place of acquiring education. However, education is much more beneficial for current, so called “knowledge society”, if we are able to enforce it. Educational system in the Czech Republic (CZ) has undergone essential transformation during last 15 years; a significant decentralization has occurred in regional education. The current aim following the Strategy Europe 2020 is to improve results and motivation of pupils and students at all levels of the educational system; an accent is given also to development of education based on lifelong learning conception. The article is dealing with the problematic of teacher’s prestige. The results show that one of possible reasons for lowering teachers’ prestige may be their low remuneration. In this respect, could improve the current situation as well in financing schools according to number of students and hours taught since 2020. Another reason is lower respect of teachers by students and their parents. The state should actively solve the situation by implementing rules to protect the school and teachers from the negative behaviour of students. Personality of the teacher will remain an equally important aspect.
