This article was prepared by a team of authors from the Den Frie Lærerskole (English name: The Independent Academy for Free School Teaching) in Ollerup – Danish independent institution of higher education that prepares teaching staff for free schools for children and youth and non-formal adult education, including Folk High Schools. The Academy cooperates with Kashubian Folk High School in Wieżyca for many years, therefore in the bibliography the reader will find not only the Danish and English but also Polish literature on Folk High Schools. The authors presented the main directions of the changes that have occurred in the role of the Danish Folk High Schools since the World War II to the present day, and pointed to the prospects for further development of these institutions in Denmark and around the world because of the universality of educational ideas derived from the Grundtvigian concept of School for Life.
