Formovanie identity rómskeho žiaka v podmienkach inkluzívnej edukácie
Identity Formation of Roma Pupils in the Conditions of Inclusive Education

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to draw attention to the coexistence of the majority population and the Roma ethnic group, which shows frequent anomalies. In particular, these concern the coexistence with Roma communities that live a way of life we call traditional. Mutual animosity stems from different priorities in life, from a different way of life, which somehow naturally results in their often voluntary segregation and the resulting marginalisation. In the past this was more visible, but nowadays the living space of the majority and Roma ethnic groups is increasingly intertwined, although many problems remain. We no longer live so separately, we influence each other more and more, which also influences the self-awareness of the individual, the formation of his identity. Nevertheless, we still have„islands“ of segregation of the Roma ethnic group. Our effort is to eliminate them as much as possible by involving the members of these „islands“ in the life of society, including through inclusive education,which should be present from the beginning of their institutional education. For pupils from socially disadvantaged backgrounds, it is extremely important to promote, by all means available, the creation of a stimulating environment at school, in the out-of-school environment and at home.
