Abstract

Dobrobit djeteta predstavlja osnovni cilj suradnje roditelja i odgojitelja. Djeca s teškoćama u razvoju zahtijevaju individualizirani pristup i ulaganje većega truda i rada zbog svojih specifičnosti prema kojima se razlikuju od ostale djece urednoga razvoja. Kvalitetnoj suradnji pridonosi profesionalna kompetencija odgojitelja, njihov odnos s djecom i uspješnost u obavljanju posla. Cilj istraživanja bio je utvrditi potrebe i probleme odgojitelja koji rade s djecom s teškoćama u razvoju, a vezano za partnerstvo s roditeljima. Istraživanje je provedeno u lipnju 2024. godine, a sudjelovala su 53 odgojitelja s područja Republike Hrvatske. Podatci su prikupljeni anketnim upitnikom (Prilog 1). Istraživanje pokazuje da se polovina ispitanika osjeća nedovoljno osposobljenima za rad s djecom s teškoćama u razvoju te gotovo pola ispitanika nije imalo prilike sudjelovati na edukacijama ili radionicama vezanima za rad s djecom s teškoćama u razvoju. Gotovo 41% ispitanika nezadovoljno je razinom podrške koju dobiva u radu s djecom s teškoćama u razvoju. Većina ispitanika smatra da resursi i dostupni programi nisu dovoljni za rad s djecom s teškoćama u razvoju. Polovina ispitanih odgojitelja o djetetovom napretku i njegovim potrebama s roditeljima komunicira svaki dan. Samo je 26% ispitanika u potpunosti zadovoljno kvalitetom komunikacije s roditeljima djece s teškoćama u razvoju. Njih 34% smatra da je suradnja s roditeljima otežana jer roditelji nisu spremni saslušati i uvažiti njihove sugestije i primjedbe. Nužan preduvjet za uspješnu suradnju roditelja i odgojitelja jest razumijevanje složenosti psihosocijalnih procesa kojima su roditelji djece s teškoćama u razvoju suočeni. Većina ispitanika smatra da je potrebno poboljšati uvjete rada u predškolskim ustanovama smanjenjem broja djece po skupinama, zapošljavanjem asistenata, ali i dodatnih odgojitelja, organiziranjem korisnih edukacija i radionica te većom podrškom stručnih suradnika i službi.

Abstract (english)

Effective educational work implies tight cooperation between parents and preschool teacher. Children with developmental disabilities have different functional abilities, due to which they need appropriate support. Each teacher's individual competence in cooperating with parents is an important factor regarding parental cooperation. The aim of the research is to examine the assessments of educators about the involvement of families of children with developmental disabilities in kindergarten activities. The research conducted by questionnaire in June 2024 included 53 educators in the area of Republic of Croatia. The research results show that more than half of the respondents feel that they are not qualified to teach the children with developmental disability. Most teachers who teach children with developmental disabilities have not received any training in special needs education at the workplace. Almost 41% of respondents are not satisfied with the level of support for a children with special needs. The most of respondents indicated that the resources and available programs are not sufficient for working with children with developmental disabilities. Half of the respondents communicate with parents about the child's progress and needs every day. Only 26% of respondents are completely satisfied with the quality of communication with parents. 34% of them believe that cooperation with parents is difficult because the parents are not ready to listen to and accept their suggestions and remarks. The most important for successful cooperation between parents and educators are mutual understanding and respect. It was concluded that the majority of respondents believe that reducing the number of children in groups, employment more assistants and additional teachers, useful training and workshops for teachers, and greater support from specialised educational services would contribute to better partnership of preschool teachers and parents of children with developmental disabilities.
