Abstract
V originále
Various researches and studies show that Roma population in the Czech Republic faces systematic disadvantages in several areas. The most serious disadvantage is the one in the labor market. One of the main reasons leading to this situation is the low educational level Roma people attain. The causes that lay behind the specifically low qualification of the Roma are the access to various levels of education and the process of passing through the whole educational system. There are numerous publications on this issue, including discussions on the possible influence of individual, family background, educational system or social climate. However, to what extent the present Czech educational system is able to compensate the different individual backgrounds? The goal of this paper is to introduce possible tools aimed to compensate the influence of various individual backgrounds and of other factors related to the marginalization of the Roma in the Czech society. The present paper also raises the question of how public institutions can improve educational perspectives of the systematically disadvantaged groups of children in the Czech educational system.
