The present paper is an attempt to map the thematic museums of education that exist in Greece, as well as to record the policies they follow and reveal their explanatory educational and social work. What is also attempted through this paper, is the comparative analysis of the educational –oriented museums that appear the last 20 years in Greece. The dialogue tries to show off the following aspects as crucial to their further constructive function: a) The rate of their correspondence to the demands of the modern role of the museum, based on the definition of the ICOM and the orders of for-life education b) the abilities and weaknesses that the museums themselves trace, in reference to their grounds and identity c) the rate of social sensitivity and their commitment to the development of co-operation among them. The conclusions of this paper summarize the characteristics of the museums that were responsive to this research and suggest a model of systemic approach. This model will subject the museums to strategic planning according to unified principles of cultural management and will define specific roles and areas of research, as well as possible specialization in theoretical sections of education, determining standards of control and certification by a scientific and administrative authority. It is important to emphasize that this model is going to provide degrees of freedom that will highlight the needs and interests of the local society, where these museums belong to, setting as a goal the strength of the development of necessary initiatives. What is strongly suggested is the creation of a network that will perform cultural politics according to high-standard specifications based on the sciences of cultural management and education. This cultural politics will derive from the centre that will provide the necessary means but will be adapted and accomplished only with the help and co-operation of the local societies
