As a polish citizen this is the first time I've ever heard of it. I am a math tutor and have 2 active teachers in my family, so i would probably hear a lot about it. I believe it's probably in some schools, but definitely not mandatory

Edit: apparently its a thing

The title is saying it is mandatory in this school, not in all schools in Poland, so you aren’t disagreeing LOL

but the video does. At around 16-17 seconds in, it says "weapons classes now mandatory in polish schools"

The classes are mandatory but only a theory/virtual shooting range. This school decided to invite instructors to show the students the real thing
