The topic of my research is peer violence among children with special needs, which I researched at a school with an adapted program with a lower educational standard and a special education program. In the diploma thesis, the theoretical part is divided into three sections: peer violence, children with special needs and a review of research on peer violence among children with special needs. The empirical part consists of the formulation of a problem with research questions and methodology, which presents a measurement instrument (guidelines for a partially standardized interview), a data collection method (a partially standardized interview) and two research units (children and school counselors). The following are the results and a discussion with conclusions, where the essential findings are presented: school counselors cite the situation in the family as the cause of peer violence; the most common form of peer violence is verbal violence, which includes cursing, abusive language; boys are the most common perpetrators of violence, in the role of a victim are both - boys and girls; peer violence most often occurs during school breaks and at physical education; children most often refer to a teacher or class teacher and school counselor for help; to prevent peer violence, the school performs conversations on the topic of violence, the subject of Social Learning and cooperates with other institutions; The solution or the possibility of reducing peer violence is seen by students in socializing with each other, through conversations and nonviolent behavior. To improve prevention based on the findings, I suggest the following: more preventive talks in class, classrom activites on how to recognize peer violence, more attention to new forms of peer violence (online violence), lectures for parents and guardians. In addition, I also suggest repeating the science day How to deal with anger, which has proven to be a good practice.
