WAYS OF IMPROVING SCHOOL ADAPTATION IN PRE-ADOLESCENTS

Summary/Abstract: The paradigm of school adjustment to the demands and teaching possibilities of the student, prompts for a diversification of learning situations and experiences, and setting them up according to the possibilities and needs of all student categories in order to meet the following principles: “inclusive school”, “school for all”, “integrated teaching”. One of the periods in which frequent difficulties of school adaptation are registered is pre-adolescence, especially the beginning of pre-adolescence, which coincides in students with the passage from elementary to secondary school and which on the foundation of a fragile emotional and psychic balance as well as personality in formation, numerous adaptation behaviours are assimilated and long lasting behavioural patterns are formed, which will be transferred in future activities. The steps to be taken in our investigations of identifying the pre-adolescents’ adaptation difficulties to the specific requirements of secondary education, as well as of developing and implementing strategies to prevent / improve these difficulties, are convergent with the action directions of the educational policy documents that refer to basic education.
