Abstract
This chapter examines the relationship between Lifelong Learning and school. First it analyzes the function and social role of school. Then it presents the expectations in connection with Lifelong Learning: the opportunities of acquiring and developing basic skills and the motivation to learn. Finally, it presents the shortcomings of the practice applied in today’s schools and presents a short summary of two selected school development proposals from the international educational science literature.
