Anotace: Will a social educator ever be considered a valid member of the teaching staff at every school? In the

Czech Republic this position is being debated, while many universities have been training social
educators for years and their graduates number in the thousands. In addition, hundreds of schools have
been able to verify this position and determine how social educators manage to provide teachers with
information regarding pupils' backgrounds, and help them choose the appropriate approach for each
of them. Social educators should create links between the school and the outside social environment,
including facilitating communication with parents. We are attempting to determine how much is
needed and precisely what this means. Will it be enough for a legislative change, and how far are we
in this discussion?
