In this sense, this research aims to study the heritage conceptions, perceptions and learning context amongst primary and secondary students, comprehensively and fully. Design/methodology/approach This research focuses in Andorra, a country in the Pyrenees, where there are three different education systems. This allowed the study to obtain a sample of 1,235 primary and secondary students, throughout a structured questionnaire that was previously designed and validated ad hoc. Findings In general terms, the results show that around half of the students have a holistic view of heritage; however, natural and historical elements are highlighted as the ones they learn from the most, especially through visits in situ. Moreover, the students' perceptions of heritage show that over a 90% of students believe it is important to safeguard because it is connected to nature and culture preservation. Originality/value This research is included in a greater scope project that also considers other agents in the education community that belong to formal and non-formal spheres. In addition, it is the first investigation where the field of heritage education is studied globally in an entire country, considering primary and secondary education students.This study was supported by the Ministry of Universities from Spain Government and funding by European Union-Next Generation through Margarita Salas programme. In addition, it was funded by the Department of Culture of the Government of Catalonia, the Provincial Government of Lleida and the Institute for the Development and Promotion of the High Pyrenees and Aran (IDAPA) through their respective annual grants (2021–2022) to the Chair of Education and Intangible Heritage of the Pyrenees from the University of Lleida.Emerald2024info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.1108/JCHMSD-03-2023-0030https://hdl.handle.net/10459.1/466775reponame:Recercat.
