Technological and polytechnic education in the field of computer aided design in 2D and 3D at non-technical secondary schools represents a new and relatively unexplored area. Approaches to promoting technological and polytechnic education are numerous. However, the problem tends to be simplified to the issue of processing materials, which does not take into account the wide range of techniques and technologies, nowadays largely represented by information and communication technologies. With these facts in mind, an experiment was conducted, focused on the addition of a thematic unit of computer aided design in 2D and 3D supported by CAD system to the curriculum of grammar schools, for the time period of 6 months. The submitted study presents a summary of contributions and results of the experiment, using the method of investigative research carried out among the students and teachers of grammar schools, who had implemented the training of the above mentioned subject.
