Teaching philosophy in schools embraces an enormous educational and pedagogical potential. Due to the dynamism of our time and the current schooling tasks it involves I focus on the latter aspect. In it, I make reference to the ancient conception of philosophy whose function was formation of individuals as a result of immersing them in philosophical discourse. Whereas the final part of the article comprises a discussion of the benefits that come from such an attitude, its opening part expounds the premises of my argument.
