The aim of this thesis was to focus on the role of a special education teacher in inclusive education. It explains and emphasize the importance of this profession. The theoretical framework defines the concept of integration and inclusion. It describes the history of integration and its existence in documents. The process of inclusive education is analyzed with respect to different special needs. Educational consultancy facilities and consulting services for individuals with disabilities are also mentioned.

Zootherapy for Pupils with Special Education Needs in District Tábor
KRATOCHVÍLOVÁ HAVLOVÁ, Jitka
Zootherapy, as a relatively new method, is categorized within a comprehensive rehabilitation and in special schools. Here is used not only as suitable relaxation and diversification of lessons, but also in targeted work with children ? development of physical, mental, emotional and social skills. The animal is not the only mediator, but a welcome friend, to which many children with disabilities have closer relationship than to other people. Dogs are loyal friends, without any conditions, they are willing to snuggle and play, offering a plentiful amount of initiative, the child is not bored with them and he /she learns new skills naturally. Horse riding gives to children a sense of uniqueness, joy, freedom, it increases their self-image and it develops child´s motor activity. And even small animals (hamsters, quinea pigs, turtles, budgies etc.) are able to awaken happiness, interest and through love to an animal it is only a step to love other people.

The organization providing the service of day centre is also introduced in certaion chapters of the thesis. The deep analysis of the questionnaires filled by the volunteers, which I myself performed, helped me to understand to the motivation leading the students to volunteer. Another conclusion arising from the partial study is the fact that students are influenced by these activities. They gain new experiences, knowledge and skills. They feel fulfilled by doing good and their view on the people with disability is changing. The main reason iniciating volunteer activies of the students is often the need of knowledge and new experiences.

JAVŮRKOVÁ, Ivana
The bachelor thesis is focused on the integration of children into the Czech kindergartens ? mainly from foreign citizen and immigrant families and also briefly the theme of Gypsy children. The theoretical part deals with the most frequent terms which we can encounter in this context and current opinions mentioned in the latest years literature which deals with the integration of foreigners into schools. The aim of this bachelor thesis is to see the approach of teachers from the chosen sample of the Czech kindergartens, teachers? treatment and their abilities to integrate the foreigners? children into the group. Above all, find out the opinion of quality and erudition of the Czech kindergartens through the interviews with parents. Through the observation is then possible to confront the reality. The results of research indicate the underestimation of serious situation, which concerns the integration of foreigners into schools from the point of view of educational institutions and legislators. The educations of kindergarten teachers is not developed enough in this way and there are emphasized another activities. The priority of this issue is the knowledge of the majority language - in the case of ignorance from the parents? site it could be the insurmountable obstacle for the child. Teacher´s treatment in the kindergarten becomes more intuitive matter because of the set system of education of foreign children. The issue is closely related to the education of parents who put the different emphasis on the education of their children. Research shows that there is a direct proportionality between the value of achieved education of parents and the ability and willingness of the child to learn to communicate the majority language.

KONDZIOLKOVÁ, Lucie
The thesis deals with integration of physically handicapped pupils into regular primary schools in South Bohemia and tries to survey present conditions under which integration takes place. The thesis also tries to outline the key factor that would be able to ensure successful integration of physically handicapped pupils. To survey the conditions, educational advisors, teachers, teacher?s assistants, eventually the headmasters, who, according to the information from the South Bohemian Regional Authority in České Budějovice, work with those pupils. The research part had a quantitative form. Questionnaires were distributed to above mentioned responsible people. Three hypotheses were set. Hypothesis No.1: A pupil with a physical handicap integrates easily into a group of intact individuals. Hypothesis No.2: Schools inform intact pupils and their parents about integration in advance. Hypothesis No.3: Schools has to solve access for disabled. Quantitative research showed that integration of physically handicapped pupils is without problems. The second hypothesis regarding the awareness of pupils and parents about integration was also proved. The third hypothesis regarding the access for disabled was not proved. From the questionnaires it was found out that the most important key factor that may guarantee successful integration is assistance during lessons. Assistance is in the first place, then schoolmates and parents who influence pupil?s mental readiness and the way how this pupil with a disability will be admitted to the team of schoolmates, follow. In the last place there is, according to the respondents, access for disabled. Facts gathered through the research may serve to identify crucial conditions that might guarantee successful integration of physically handicapped pupils in mainstream primary schools in the spirit of inclusive education.
