Social relations and social role arising from them in the school group from the point of view of educators

The thesis deals with social relationships in the school group from the perspective of educators and on the roles that arise due to these relationships. That is, whether the educators realize that the school group is a space for interactions between children. The theoretical part focuses on chapters from social psychology related to the topic of this thesis. It also describes the field of leisure pedagogy, characterizes individual school facilities for non-formal education and educators of the school group. The practical part is devoted to interviews that were conducted with five educators from three different primary schools and it also briefly comments on the interview with two children attending one of the school groups. A question about the formality of the interviews arose during the interviews, thus the practical part also touches upon the comparison of the impact of the environment in which the interview takes place or the length of the respondent's practice. The findings show that all the educators that were questioned by the author of this thesis are aware that the school group is an environment for children's interactions, where children establish relationships and try different roles. However, not all of them can apply this knowledge to their praxis.
