Description The presentation deals with the ideological education of children in several schools in Brno in the time of consolidation of the Communist regime. The issue is dealt with in two levels in the article. First, the examination of the ideological point of view and of the fundamental research issue of how the ideology worked with the concept of the childhood and why the ideologists focused on childhood. The second level deals with the everyday practice in schools and describes the way of how the “new man” could have been raised in specific schools. The regime developed and applied specifically adapted teaching and educational methods which are divided into four categories in the article – education by example, education through work, education through love to nature and education through culture. Successes of the Communist regime in the education of the “new people“ used to be presented on mass celebrations, e.g. during the celebration of birthday of President Klement Gottwald.
