The article deals with the issue of coherence of two models created in recent years in Poland in the area of education: the model of the modern Polish school described in the requirements for education, and the model of educational leadership, created for the needs of training future principals of educational institutions. The requirements specify the areas of the work of schools and educational institutions that are deemed priorities from the point of view of education development. The research problem developed in this article concerns the question of coherence between the concept of school, as it is couched in the form of requirements for education, and the created model of educational leadership. These two models were compared taking into consideration the values that are their foundations. The research was based on text reading as its method. The conducted analysis allows for a conclusion that in the axiological dimensions both these models are coherent.
