COOPERATION BETWEEN SCHOOL (TEACHERS) AND PARENTS AS AN IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THE EDUCATION OF PUPILS WITH SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS

In the Czech Republic (and not only here), the proportion of children, pupils and students with special educational needs is gradually increasing in mainstream schools. If, a few years ago (10-20) economic and legislative factors were preferred in the attitudes of teachers who commented on the conditions of so-called "inclusive" education, we are currently seeing crucial problems in the communication (relations) of participants in the process. The research team conducted a series of surveys in 2018-2019 that focused on the quality of life of people caring for a family member (child) with disabilities (n = 526). In addition, we have also carried out extensive research measurements of teachers' attitudes to inclusive education (n = 2,526). In the paper, we present partial results of comprehensive research reports showing a possible source of conflicts (misunderstandings) among the actors of joint learning. These disagreements may arise in particular from the lack of information or communication at the teacher-pupil-parent level with regard to the inclusive education process.
