The thesis is devoted to the analysis of written narratives of secondary vocational school students. In the introduction, it presents the characteristics of communication and essay education in secondary schools with regard to the current curricula for secondary vocational schools. It then discusses the definition of the narrative style process and the narrative style form in the stylistics of the Czech language and in textbooks for secondary schools. Due to the choice of the examined style form, the theoretical part includes selected findings from narratology. The research section is based on the collected written works of students of the first year of three secondary vocational schools. The aim of the thesis is to analyse and describe how pupils portray the presentation of a story in their written narratives. The phenomenon in question is studied with reference to three basic categories that can be used to describe story delivery - time, narrator and forms of speech delivery. The thesis concludes by summarizing the findings obtained from the analysis of the students' works and formulating conclusions that provide suggestions for school teaching.

The aim of the diploma thesis is also to find out whether the preferences of practicing only one of the types of reading do not prevail in selected textbooks, or whether the focus on practicing different types of reading according to SERR is balanced.
