Abstract

The aim of the contribution is to reflect analytically on the development, and especially on the benefits, of the Step-by-Step educational programme in the field of innovations in pre-primary and primary education in the Czech Republic. The intention is not only to describe the specific qualitative changes that the programme has brought to daily teaching practice, but also to capture the impact of the implementation of the Step-by-step programme on the broader field of curricular reform and the quality of the teaching profession.
