In the years 1918-1939 in Czechoslovakia the educational reform movement was developed mainly in the Czech Republic. After the collapse of Austria-Hungarian Monarchy and due to strong Magyarization, education and training in Slovakia were in bad situation. Under the influence of the protagonists of the reform movement in the Czech Republic, for example Václav Příhoda, Ludmila Žofková, František Musil, inspirations of educational reform movement began to develop in Slovakia, too. Its most important centre was the city Trnava. The arrival of Musil in 1931 marked the beginning of organized education of teachers, which acquired the official status of Trnava Education Seminar in the year 1934 and together with the journal Our School considerably influenced teachers in the Trnava region and in other parts of Slovakia, too. The journal gradually became the platform of Slovak reform teachers. The aim of this article is to find out, how the educational reform movement influenced national identity.
