Constructing the Education Path of Roma Children
2015
Our paper looks at the education of Roma children from socially
disadvantaged backgrounds. The issue is well covered in
research, education scholarship and the policy level.
Nevertheless, we would like to ask whether Roma themselves
participate in the education policy or whether they are an
object of an interest and institutional power of decision
makers in the Czech education system. We focus on the
construction of the education of a Roma pupil from the point of
view of Roma parents and Roma children. We collected our data
through group interviews and techniques of the Theatre of the
Oppressed (focusing on primary and secondary socialization of
the Roma children). We adapted some of the techniques of the
Theatre of the Oppressed to methods of discourse analysis -
used also for the data analysis. Discourse analysis emerged
from the ideas of constructivism and post-structuralism. In
this paper, we aim to describe theoretical background and the
main findings of our research. Lastly, we would like to discuss
ways to apply our findings in schools.
