In the master's thesis we discussed the education in Dobrepolje in the Interwar Period (1918 – 1941). In the theoretical part we reviewed the literature and described the general historical events in Slovenia and Dobrepolje in the Interwar period. We described the history of education in Slovenia in the Interwar period and the beginning of schooling in Dobrepolje. We described the evolution of the school from one grade school to school with six grades and important events that had an influence on it. At the end of the theoretical part, we included the chapter about everyday life of children (in Dobrepolje) in the Interwar period, because it played an important role in their school attendance.
The information in the empirical part was obtained from different documents. The analysis of the school certificate and old notebooks are supported with photos. The photos are also included in all parts of the thesis. We compared the sociological content from the current curriculum of the school subject “družba” and the content from the curriculum from 1937. With the help of the School Cornicle from the Slovenian school museum we described interesting events that happened in Dobrepolje primary school in the Interwar period. We interviewed two old ladies that were students in school in Dobrepolje during the Interwar period. Together with written memories of another student, who also attended school during the Interwar period, we found out, what attitude the children had towards the education in the Interwar period and how life related to it looked like.
