v anglickém jazyce The thesis deals with the right to education in the European system of the protection of human rights. It examines theoretical approaches to judicial protection of the right to education. It compares the right to education in the European system of the protection of human rights with the United Nations' human rights protection and the human rights protection system with the system of the Organization of American States.

The paper shows that violation of the right to education of ethnic minorities are always related to racial discrimination. This fact must be taken...

Constitutional Guarantees of the Right to Access to Education with Focus on Persons with Disabilities
Haiselová, Laura ; Hofmannová, Helena (advisor) ; Kindlová, Miluše (referee)
The topic of the thesis is constitutional guarantees of the right of persons with disabilities to education. Both physically and mentally disabled persons form a significant part of the society. However, they have not been considered a specific subject of human rights until the second half of the 20th century. At first, they were protected as a subject of social security and charity. Nowadays the regulation is focused on social inclusion of persons with disabilities. The most important international legal instrument in this field is the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities which was adopted by the United Nations in 2006. The right to education is a substantial human right and it arises from human dignity itself. Education is also a requisite for the execution of other rights and it is a key means for social inclusion of persons with disabilities. Disability can often be an obstacle or a reason for discrimination in access to education. Thus it is necessary to pay special attention to persons with disabilities in this field. The aim of the thesis is to name the main constitutional guarantees of the right of disabled persons to education. The source of these guarantees is the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms with regard to the Constitutional Court's practice. The thesis also...

Inclusive Practice in Education of Refugee Children
Bačáková, Markéta ; Květoňová, Lea (advisor) ; Šotolová, Eva (referee) ; Šiklová, Jiřina (referee)
TITLE: Inclusive Practice in Education of Refugee Children AUTHOR: Markéta Bačáková DEPARTMENT: Department of Special Education Research in refugee education is currently almost non-existent in the Czech Republic, even though internationally, it represents a topic much researched and debated. Its importance lies within the high vulnerability of persons fleeing their homes due to persecution as well as within the area of human rights enshrined in many international conventions together with the current educational trends, such as the inclusive education. Moreover, international research shows that refugee children provide us with an utmost unique view on the education system. Listening to their voices, therefore, has the potential to help us find new answers for the ever-increasing diversity in school population. The presented doctoral project aims to support the discussion in the area of educational experiences of refugee children in the Czech Republic and simultaneously, to reflect the practice of countries with long experience with international migration. The thesis builds on a case study of a group of resettled Burmese refugees in the Czech Republic and poses the question whether these children and their families have the possibility to fully enjoy the right to education embedded in many...

The Right to Education
NESVAČILOVÁ, Iva
The thesis deals with the right to education, it's historical conception up to the current suggested reform of the tertiary education. The main aim of the thesis is to map attitudes of specialists and students to education and the educational reform. In the thesis I applied my mind to the rate of awareness of fees at universities in the Ceske Budejovice region. The bachelor thesis is divided in two parts. The one is theoretical and the second is practical. The basic terms which are connected with education are defined in the theoretical part. The thesis concerns with the development of education from the first compulsory education, which was implemented by a Habsburk monarch Marie Terezie in 1774, up to a current educational system in the Czech republic. The information about an educational system in the field of preschool education, elementary education, secondary education, higher technical education and tertiary education are described here. The current reform of tertiary education where the Project of tertiary education reform is involved is also the part. The main target of the project is to propose an ideal system of the tertiary education management and financing. The legislative confirmation of a right to education is the essential part of the thesis. In the end of the work I focus on the current state of the reform and it's continuous changes. The last updated information concerned with the problem are from the month of April, this year. The practical part of the work describes the specification of a target, hypothesis, a personal research and a data evaluation.Results of a research after a good concordance calculation Chí ? kvadrát showed that according to students' and specialists' opinions a reform of a tertiary education will influence the right to education. A school fee and an enrolment fee will also influence the right to education mainly by a reduction of university students. It will hurt mainly students from poors families. Results also showed that from the whole number of students which were asked 13% of them prolong their studies. The bachelor's thesis can be used as a study or information material for students to clarify information connected with the school system in the Czech republic. A reform of an university education system is not finished in this time.

Recognizing of rights of mentally disabled individuals and school integration.
CZINEGOVÁ, Eva
The attitude of society towards persons with mental disabilities and recognizing their rights and dignity are important evaluation aspects of the society. The Czech Republic follows modern European trends that provide the mentally disabled with the same extent of activities as people without disabilities. As a topic of my thesis I have chosen the mentally disabled children´s right to education. The thesis addresses attitudes of primary school headmasters as well as attitudes of the staff of special education centers for children and youths with mental disabilities to integration of pupils with mental disabilities into a regular primary school. The theoretical part of the thesis deals with important documents discussing the rights of individuals with mental disabilities. It describes not only mental disability and its degrees, but in particular education of children with mental disabilities in schools set up for pupils with special educational needs and the possibility of integrating these pupils into mainstream education. The theoretical part is followed by the practical part. The objective of the thesis was to identify the attitude of primary school headmasters as well as that of the staff of a special education center for the mentally disabled staff to the integration process of children with mental disabilities into mainstream primary schools and implementation of the right to education of children with mental disabilities. The research was conducted by the interrogation method using anonymous questionnaires. The results show that a majority of primary schools headmasters in the South Bohemian region support the right to education of pupils with mental disabilities in the form of their integration into regular classrooms. All the respondents, both primary school headmasters and the special education center staff, give the priority at education to individual learning abilities of each child with a mental disability. At the integration of a pupil with a mental disability into a regular primary school the crucial criterion is health and social motivation, not economic motivation. This thesis can be used as a survey of current attitudes and opinions of primary school headmasters and special education centers´ staff on the possibility of pupils with mental disabilities integration into mainstream education.
