Sammanfattning

Samarbetet med föräldrar är en viktig faktor för att barnens förskoletid och skolgång ska bli så bra som möjligt. Utifrån detta är syftet med vårt examensarbete att få en inblick i hur föräldrar till barn som har Downs syndrom ser på sina barns skolgång. Vår frågeställning lyder:

  •  Vilken möjlighet att välja skolform för sina barn upplever de föräldrar som svarat på enkäten att de har?
  •  Hur ser de föräldrar som svarat på enkäten på sina barns skolplacering?
  •  Om de föräldrar som svarat på enkäten hade möjlighet att välja, vad avgjorde deras val?
  •  Har barnens födelseår någon påverkan för hur föräldrarna har svarat?

För att få svar på våra frågor valde vi att använda oss av en enkät. Enkäten lämnades ut till 32 stycken familjer och av dessa var det fem föräldrar som svarade.

Bland de fem svar vi fick var det tre barn som var integrerade elever i grundskolan och två som gått inom träningsskolan. De föräldrar som haft sina barn inom träningsskolan gav svar som visade på ett totalt missnöje med barnens skolgång, medan de som hade barn inom grundskolan gav positiva svar. Barnens födelseår hade påverkan på föräldrarnas möjlighet att välja skolform.

Abstract

Cooperation with parents is an important factor to make the children’s preschool and schooling as good as possible. The purpose of our thesis is to gain an insight into how parents of children with Down syndrome see at their children's schooling. Our questions are:

  • What possibilities for choice of school for their children perceive the parents who responded to the questionnaire that they have?
  • How do these parents regard their child’s school allocation?
  • If any of the parents had a say in the placing of their child what was the deciding factor for their choice?
  • Has the children’s year of birth impact on how parents have responded?

In order to get an answer to our questions, we chose to use a questionnaire. The questionnaire was sent out to thirty-two families and of these, there were five who answered.

Among the five answers we received were three children who were integrated pupils in primary school and two who were enrolled in the training school. The parents who had their children in the training school gave answers that indicated a total dissatisfaction with their children’s schooling, while those who have children in elementary school gave a positive response. The children’s year of birth had impact at the parents’ opportunity of the selection of school form.
