Bullying at vocational school
PEŠOVÁ, Olga
The topic of this bachelor thesis ``bullying at apprentice training schools{\crq}q is becoming more and more discussed these days. One of the main reasons of this trend is the constant media attention regarding the given topic. Cases of bullying and aggression are very often presented not only on television and in newspaper but also on the Internet. What is considered highly alarming is the fact that the age of aggressively behaving young people and children is continually dropping. I think that, as in the majority of interpersonal problems, the origin of this conduct is to be found in negative aspects of family upbringing. In my experience, most of the bullies grew up in families that were either incomplete or dysfunctional. The outcome of these findings is the content of the bachelor thesis here presented. In the theoretical part, I focus on the exact definition of bullying, aggressor and victim, on the specificities in children and youth, as well as on the definition of the family unit and its function. In the practical part, it was my goal to asses the extent of bullying at the Apprentice School in Třešť and to inquire into the connection between this kind of behavior and family upbringing. The research in the practical part was conducted through quantitative questionnaires for the students of the school and semi-standardized interviews with the teachers and staff. As an illustration, at the end of the practical part a case of one of the students at the Apprentice School in Třešť is presented. The research has revealed that the most important condition for a harmonic development of the child is an appropriate upbringing in his/her family without unnecessary punishments and without pathological symptoms in the functioning of the family.
