The aim of the exploration is the attempt of complacency capture amongst teachers of elementary schools and organization’s culture as their workplace at urban terrain in Podkarpackie Voivodeship in Poland. The research was conducted in June, 2023 amongst 219 teachers from 17 public schools, what was 63% of education’s institutions from one research area. The Organizational Culture Assessment Instrument (OCAI) created by Cameron and Quinn, was used to collect research material. Thanks to the questionnaire, it was possible to get opinions of the respondents on current and expected types of organization’s culture of their workplace (clan, adhocracy, market, hierarchy). It was proved that the respondents’ opinions are discrepant from their vision of well-managed institutions. The analysis of current and expected states revealed not only dominant types of the chosen elementary schools’ organization culture but also it enabled the Author to capture everyday difficulties of teachers at school. Only the need for school competitiveness (the market) in the opinions of those surveyed is non-differentiating aspect of the organization’s found and expected culture. Divergent perceptions of the present and desired other types of culture (clan, adhocracy, hierarchy) may result in an unfavorable sense of security among the surveyed elementary school teachers.
