The purpose of this paper is to present some of the results of a broader survey of current geography curricula at primary and secondary levels of education in Slovenia. The primary aim of the study was to find out what kind of curricula for geography lessons teachers of geography and others interested in geography would like to see at different levels of education. The study consisted of two parts: in the first part, we took an analytical view of the primary school curriculum in geography, and in the second part, which is provided in this paper, we focused on the secondary educational level, looking at both gymnasiums and secondary vocational and technical education. We present the opinions of the survey respondents on the basic conceptual orientation of the geography curricula in gymnasiums and in secondary vocational and technical schools, their elementary structure and scope, and the respondents' reflections on the comprehensiveness,usefulness and suitability of individual curriculum elements for teaching geography.
