Abstract: Recent studies from the early 21st century show that negative trends as inequality of wealth, a sharp drop in demand for spiritual values, increased social and psychological disorientation and poor, unemployment, crime, processes of transformation of family values are increasing. All these changes lead to a negative impact on the lives of children and adolescents. Existing educational conditions in the country have led to an increase in children with behavioral problems. As a response and effective solution to the challenges of modern society, there is a holistic approach to education, thanks to which students’ motivation can be increased, understanding and learning – too, as a coping with conflicts and aggression. Holistic education is related to the training of every person – emotional, aesthetic, creative, physical, etc., and through it there is cooperation and mutual respect between all participants in the educational process. Holistic education is based on experience – broad, open, inorganic as life itself, not „great books“ or „basic skills“.
