Summary/Abstract: Romani children, due to the ethno-cultural and social specificity of the community in which they are brought up, constitute a group of pupils who require special assistance in determining the course of their school education, as well as directed support in the area of psychological and pedagogical assistance (also in the area of speech therapy). Therefore, this article presents not only the specificity of the Romani community in Poland, but also – based on the example of Olsztyn – the activities conducted for the Romani inhabitants of this city and their children studying in selected schools operating in the city.
