Abstrakt

The paper presents co-production, understood as a relationship between service users, i.e. parents and professionals (teachers) that requires their direct involvement in the tasks performed by primary schools and their providers, in Poland. This provides evidence about the relationship between two main school stakeholders in Ostromian study on classical co-production. The main hypothesis in the study assumes that two types of co-production, i.e. instrumental and transformative mode, can be observed in primary schools depending on the type of the provider, i.e. communes and third sector organisations. The study is based on a teacher and a parent survey conducted in the schools of both types of educational service providers in 2018-2021.
