In the theoretical introduction, I defined domestic violence, and listed and described the types and forms of violence against children in the family. I presented the consequences of violence and the processes of recognizing and acting in cases of violence against children. In addition, I presented the role of primary school professionals and the role of centres for social work and barriers. Finally, I focused on the berries of schools and counsellors in detecting, recognizing and responding to child exposure to domestic violence.
The following is the methodological part, where I wrote down my qualitative analysis. With six interviews conducted and their analysis, I wanted to find out the course of reporting on violence within the school and to the Centre for Social Work, where the information stops and why. I also raised other research sub questions connected to this.
I found that at school, domestic violence is often recognized by teachers, or the child himself tells them about the violence at home. From there, the procedure, is carried out according to the Rules of working with family violence in educational institutions. But there is a problem, as the school checks the suspicion of violence, tries to solve it and invites parents to the interviews before the report. Otherwise, most of the violence against children in the family, is reported to the Centre for Social Work, with which, most of the time, have good cooperation. However, they face various obstacles and challenges at school, which they also agree with at the Centre for Social Work.
Based on the findings of the research, in the end, I also write down the proposals related to the recognition of domestic violence and reporting procedures.
