Is it preferable to keep the UK tax status?
Usually yes, and far more straightforward to file returns.
If you have legal residency or your "centre of interests" is deemed by the Urząd Skarbowy to be in Poland, they will insist you do a return there. If you don't have Polish residency or citizenship, think about entering/leaving Schengen via airports outside Poland. The meaning of the term "centre of interests" has been discussed in threads here and should be easily findable by doing a search.
