You're wrong, they don't teach derivatives in the HS curriculum in Poland, even when you take advanced math in HS.

A picture of a function, its derivative and the notion, that one function shows the other's tangent's slopes, is all that's needed, that should fit in a high-school curriculum especially in physics.

But you are going to hear it anyway if you are going to study.
