Digital and media environments have become an integral part of young people's everyday lives, which increases the importance of developing digital competences, critical thinking, and media and information literacy within formal education. This study focuses on analysing how these areas are integrated into school education programs of general upper secondary schools in Slovakia. The research is based on a qualitative content analysis of 82 school-level curricular documents from all regions of the Slovak Republic. The findings indicate that digital education is addressed more frequently than media and information literacy, with the emphasis placed mainly on basic user skills and the technical use of digital tools. Critical thinking appears relatively often in curricular documents, particularly within general educational aims; however, it is commonly formulated at a declarative level without clear methodological guidance or evaluation criteria. Media and information literacy is integrated mostly implicitly or marginally, which results in uneven conditions for the development of these competences among students. The study highlights the need for more explicit curricular anchoring of cross-curricular competences, stronger coordination at the school level, and clearer frameworks for their systematic development and assessment in general upper secondary education.
