Abstract:The paper focuses on gender equality policy in education. It aims to rectify the fact that theoretical concepts of gender equality receive little attention in the Czech Republic, both within academic discussion and in practical political discourse. In general, gender equality can be defined in three different ways: equality in approach, equality in opportunities, or equality in results. Furthermore, we can distinguish between gender sensitivity and gender neutrality. All alternatives have their weak and strong sides which are discussed in the paper. An effective school policy cannot make do without a deep understanding of these issues, which helps explain why the Czech version of gender equality policy is so ineffcient in spite of some positive changes in the past few years. Gender equality is incorporated in school policies mostly in a formal manner that shows little concern or/and no understanding of the latent aspects of gender equality.

Key words: gender equality in education;policy of gender equality;school system

总结：1、本文主要阐述教育政策中性别平等问题，主要目的是纠正捷克共和国的无论是学术讨论或是实际政策中性别平等理论概念得到较少关注的事实。

2、一般来说，性别平等可以从三个方面来定义，即方式的平等、机会的平等和结果的平等。

3、性别平等纳入学校政策主要是以一种正规的方式并且对性别平等有较少的关注或者对其潜在方面并不理解的情况下。
