Opinions of older school children on social work
TESAŘOVÁ, Veronika
In this Bachelor thesis, I discuss the views of older school-age children on social work. The aim of the Bachelor thesis was to find out and describe what information children of older school age have about social work, how they perceive it and whether it is promising for them as a possible future profession. Qualitative research, polling method and semi-structured interview technique were used to process the practical part and achieve the goal. Interviews were conducted with 8 children of older school age from České Budějovice who were selected on the basis of the snowball method. After processing the interviews, I conducted their evaluation using the categorization method. The results of the research indicate that children of older school age have little to little awareness of social work, which is not particularly present in school or family settings. On the basis of the interviews, we can conclude that children can deduce what the concept of a helping profession means, but social work as such is largely unknown to them. The results of this Bachelor thesis can help to improve awareness of social work not only for older school age children, but also for the general public. It is particularly the case that social work occurs in everyday life without us realising it and it is therefore a good idea to inform children in primary schools about this area and to offer it to them as a future focus.
