Description In the study, data collected in a representative sociological survey based on submitted questions and conducted by the INRES-SONES company are interpreted. Questions sought to elicit opinions of the citizens of the Czech Republic on health and healthy lifestyle education, and its connection with the teaching profession. Citizens of the Czech Republic think that the most important source of health information for children and young people is the family, followed in second place by the school. Teachers are considered as more-or-less trained to teach health education to their pupils, but CR citizens also think that teachers do not set a particularly good example for their pupils in healthy lifestyles, although care for their healthy lifestyle is, as a rule, considered as the teachers' duty. This article lists the research results obtained in the framework of the research project, SCHOOL AND HEALTH 21 (MSM0021622421)
