Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The study deals with evaluation of the importance of Czech schools in Croatia for the local expatriate community, specifically for preservation of the Czech national identity abroad. The aim of the study is to provide a description of educational reality in Czech schools in Croatia and consequently explore the potential of using gathered data in the process of improvement the quality of education, both with regard to the needs of the Czech minority and the preservation of its national and cultural identity. The research seeks to discover whether there are any specific educational needs of children belonging to the Czech national minority in the context of cultural models of education in Croatia and Czech schools in Croatia and what is the role of the Czech language in the process of maintaining the Czech identity. The study is based on field study conducted in Croatia in 2016 via qualitative research methods (interviews with Czech teachers and other compatriots). The research results pointed out the significant role of bilingualism as an integral part of participants&apos; identity. However, there is a strong tendency identified by Czech minority members to prefer the Croatian language in everyday communication at Czech schools. The representatives seek to create measures that would contribute to preservation of the Czech identity in Croatia in future generations. The anti-assimilation tendency applied in Czech minority education in Croatia is mainly of a language character. This condition results in emphasizing the need to formulate and implement a new objective - development of the Czech language competencies of the teaching staff.
