SWITCHING BETWEEN SCHOOLS: BEING A PUPIL OF CZECH SCHOOL WITHOUT BORDERS IN LONDON, GREAT BRITAIN

Original language description

Parental language plays a crucial role in the life of Czech migrant infants. The reported results reveal a complex picture of Czech migrant bilingual children in the age of 8 to 15 who are pupils of Czech School without Borders in London, Great Britain and at the same time pupils of the compulsory teaching system in British Schools. Although the linguistic and related social ability in bilingual children have been analysed by scientists before [1] [2] [3] there is a lack of developmental research on Czech children residing in Great Britain in the current 21st century. The particular group in a particular institution was examined through a field survey with the main objective to reveal the social linguistic interferences, attitudinal perspectives and identities of these multilingual children. Considering that the comparative perspectives of children in the European environment benefit migrants with multilingual assimilation [1] the study reveals susceptibility of the impact of pros and drawbacks of children´s bilingual position in the British environment. The linguistic and social consequences can be perceived as an inner personal “battle” of the bilingual children because of the sociolinguistic functions. These are caused by language mixing and are evident in many bilingual communities [4] [5] [6]. With regard to the evidence of cognitive advantages of bilingualism on everyday life performing [7] [8] [9] [10] children´s personal perception of favourableness or disadvantageousness of being bilingual in either linguistic or non-linguistic control was analysed. To embrace the implications of this studied phenomenon, the level of the usage of Czech language at children´s homes was contrasted with the inevitable and exclusive official language medium, English.
