The aim of primary prevention is to discourage pupils from their involvement in risk behavior or to put the risk behavior off until later age. Those that exercise primary prevention activities are the family and school. Now schools and educational facilities are required to develop the so-called minimal preventive program according to the Methodological instructions of the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports. The chapter ``The current status{\crqq} is based on professional literature.

NOVÁ, Iveta
Nicotinism as a predisposition to the use of illegal addictive substances Bachelor Dissertation Abstract The goal of my Bachelor Dissertation is to map out and analyze how tobacco products and other addictive substances are used, to determine the dependence between the use of nicotine and other addictive substances and to identify the risk factors which lead to the use of these substances in the population of basic school pupils. In the theoretical part I address the concept of tobacco, its composition, dependence and the consequences of its use. I then describe the term drug addiction, its origin, development and stages. In the conclusion I characterise the period of adolescence and the risk factors and differences concerning addictive substances which are connected with it. To meet the set goals, quantitative research was chosen, a method of questioning, using anonymous questionnaires, which were employed to define pupils' experience with tobacco and other addictive drugs. Data was collected from the 9th years of basic shools and from the corresponding years of 8-year grammar schools. For the research, two assumed hypotheses were designated and opened. Hypothesis 1: The users of tobacco products have more extensive experience with illegal addictive substances than non-users of tobacco products. This hypothesis was verified. Hypothesis 2: Girls use more tobacco products than boys. This hypothesis was also verified. The results of my Bachelor Dissertation can be used for educational purposes, as part of preventive activity in educational institutions and for making this more effective, for further research and also as material for improving awareness of this issue.

System of the prevention of social-pathological illnesses and implementation of the system at primary schools
ONDRÁČKOVÁ, Kateřina
Our diploma thesis entitled ?The system of prevention of social and pathological phenomena and its implementation at elementary schools? engages in the analysis of possibilities and conditions for and approaches to the implementation of primary pre-vention at elementary schools. The objective of the present diploma is to describe how systems of primary prevention work on the regional and school levels; accordingly, we have performed a comparison of different approaches to this issue at selected schools in the regions of South Bohemia and Pardubice. We have analyzed programmes of the aforesaid regions on the conceptual level, observing the implementation of preventive programmes at particular schools (such as elementary or special). Furthermore, we have examined the assistance as actually pro-vided to schools during the formation of school preventive programmes and their influ-ence on pupils or students as such. We are also interested in how the possibilities that are on offer for the cooperation among schools are utilized and how schools make use of grant programmes provided by regional authorities. The present thesis is divided into two parts, theoretical and practical. The theo-retical part first characterizes and defines basic terms, explaining the most common so-cial and pathological phenomena with the largest impact on the young. Second, a men-tion is made of the system of prevention at both the school and regional levels. Accord-ingly, the practical part focuses on the analysis of school activities in the area of preven-tion, particularly the methodology of prevention, the support of the formation of preven-tive programmes and the influence such programmes have on children. The conclusion summarizes presuppositions and hypotheses which are men-tioned in the introduction. A sociological survey has been conducted at selected schools by means of questionnaires, which will be evaluated at the end of our thesis.
