The purpose. Comenius devoted his entire life to tireless writing. In Pansophia, he demanded a comprehensive education (pampaedia) – a universal and comprehensive education of every human being in all his abilities. Education is to be the main tool for correcting the world and human affairs. It is the cultivation of man in the image of God. It should lead to harmony of the soul, society, and the world. The aim of our contribution was to point out how Comenius perceived children and how teachers, parents and educators should lead the upbringing of a child.
Methods. We used the content analysis of J. A. Comenius documents as a method of our research.
Results. In this paper, we analyze the student's personality in the context of education and the principles of moral education. According to J. A. Comenius, it is necessary to emphasize in education and training whether it is a boy or a girl, to emphasize an organized mind – to please God and people, to develop body, soul and spirit.
Conclusions. J. A. Comenius emphasized the irreplaceable role of parents in the life of a child where children are to be more precious to them than silver, gold and precious stones.
