A special educator and a psychologist in every school? Institutionalisation of support teaching positions in primary schools
Panák, Petr ; Mouralová, Magdalena (advisor) ; Černý, Jakub (referee)
The thesis focuses on the policy of institutionalisation of support teaching positions, which extends school special educators and school psychologists to primary schools and tries to ensure the stability of professions of the support teaching positions. The thesis focuses on the piloting of institutionalisation in small primary schools with 20-179 pupils, where schools are provided with support teaching positions by pedagogical-psychological counselling centres. The aim is to describe the functioning of the institutionalisation model and to understand how it is perceived by school special educators, school psychologists and heads of pedagogical- psychological counselling centres. The thesis is framed by two theoretical concepts: the street- level bureaucracy and the theory of accountability. The thesis uses various data sources, from questionnaires to interviews, public policy documents, and administrative data. Based on these data, the thesis concluded that it has not yet been possible to ensure a sufficient expansion of support teaching positions into schools, mainly due to the lack of qualified staff nor the professional stability of support teaching positions, as these do not have the certainty of continuation of institutionalisation in 2025. At the same time, the role of pedagogical- psychological...

Stabilization of rural primary schools with small
DOBIÁŠOVÁ, Lucie
This bachelor thesis deals with the stabilization of rural primary schools with a small number of pupils in the Benešov district. Based on interviews with primary school principals and mayors of municipalities with such schools, problems associated with the functioning of small and complete rural primary schools with a small number of pupils were identified. The interviews were structured guided interviews, which were used to analyse the relationships between the primary school and the village management, between the primary school and the community of the village residents, and to examine the characteristics of the pupils and teachers of the primary school. The primary schools under study (9 schools in total) were grouped into several types according to completeness and number of pupils. The rural primary schools surveyed in the Benešov region tend to have a small proportion of pupils from socially disadvantaged backgrounds and with educational difficulties. Funding for the operation of rural primary schools by the municipalities concerned varies widely. Some municipalities save on their primary school, others support it financially beyond the normal level. Most primary schools and the management of the municipalities concerned cooperate in organising events for children and other inhabitants of the municipality. Both institutions help each other. Primary schools in rural villages are very important in terms of cultural events in the villages. Both pupils and teachers of the primary school are involved in these events. The qualification of teachers in rural primary schools is slightly lower than in urban primary schools. The answers of mayors were mostly in line with those of principals. The thesis also includes an analysis of relevant Czech and foreign literature, including qualification papers, and some proposed tools and measures to save and stabilize rural primary schools with a small number of pupils.
