Summary/Abstract: Currently, in elementary schools in Croatia, a type of frontal teaching dominates in a class-subject-lesson system. Such teaching is more teacher-oriented than directed towards schoolchildren. It is important what the teacher is doing and how the curriculum is carried out, and the pupils mostly sit, listen and watch. The author has been studying for the past ten years the position, in such circumstances, of children with special educational needs - and children with developmental difficulties as well as very talented children in all or certain fields of activity. A sample of 95 children with developmental difficulties and 25 above-averagely talented pupils were analyzed. In the tables included, the basic data for 20 children with developmental difficulties and 10 very talented children are presented.
