Visually impaired pupil in the mainstream kindergarten
PŘÍPLATOVÁ, Gabriela
This thesis deals with the issue of inclusive education of preschool children with severe visual impairment in a regular kindergarten. The main aim of the thesis was to map the attitude of the parents of a visually impaired pupil as well as the attitude of school teachers, classmates and their parents who have experience with the process of joint education. The results captured through interviews and observations were processed in the form of a case study which is crucial for this qualitative research. The results of the research show that the inclusive education of a pupil with severe visual impairment in a regular kindergarten can be considered a failure. The reasons for this failure can be considered the lack of teachers' preparation , poor communication between parents and school or less than professional behavior of the assistant.
