The goal of this work is to map an adaptation process, which children have to go through when coming to a foreign school in terms of different instructional language, curriculum and particularly sociocultural enviroment. The work is focused on a group of factors which influence the adaptation, e.g. child age, family role, community role, cultural differencies and support techniques used by schools to make the transition process for children smoother. The work also describes the cases when children have to face the adaptation process multiple times because of repeated moving to new countries and therefore repeated school changing.
