Science in school education most often represented by a set of individual academic disciplines, such as chemistry, physics, biology, geography. Interdisciplinary communication is a reality expression of the integration processes in the study of these disciplines. Illustration of the material unity of the world around us, to demonstrate the possibilities of science to explain, modeling and reproduction of natural processes in the laboratory have a priori that the difference. In the practice of school education widespread the integrated courses of natural science too. Described trends in the development of science education in good agreement with the economic development strategy "Europe 2020: a strategy for intelligent, sustainable and inclusive growth", one of the activities of which is to enhance the performance of education systems and to facilitate the involvement of young people into the labor market.
