Abstract

Obrazovanje i siromaštvo usko su povezani pojmovi zato što je upravo obrazovanje to koje može pojedincu omogućiti bolju i perspektivniju budućnost. Socioekonomski status ima velik utjecaj na obrazovanje djece. Njegov utjecaj vidljiv je kako u pristupu obrazovnim programima tako i u obrazovnim ishodima djece. Nejednakosti u pristupu obrazovnim procesima vidljive su već u predškolskim ustanovama koje djeca nižeg sociekonomskog statusa rjeđe pohađaju. Polaskom u školu materijalni status djece dolazi do većeg izražaja. Djeca višeg socioekonomskog statusa ponekad počinju isključivati iz društva djecu nižeg socioekonomskog statusa. Djeca nižeg socioekonomskog statusa nerijetko dolaze iz obitelji gdje su roditelji postigli niži stupanj obrazovanja pa samim tim ne potiču djecu na daljnje obrazovanje te je obrazovni uspjeh te djece manji. Ono što dodatno naglašava nejednak položaj djece nižeg socioekonomskog statusa je nedostupnost izvannastavnih aktivnosti. One najčešće iziskuju dodatna financijska sredstva koja njihove obitelji nisu u mogućnosti financirati. Središnja vlast je ta koja bi trebala u većoj mjeri sufinancirati programe predškolskog odgoja i obrazovanja te obrazovne programe kako bi se povećao postotak djece iz obitelji nižeg socioekonomskog statusa koja ih pohađaju. Sudjelovanje u spomenutim obrazovnim programima poboljšava obrazovne ishode djece, pruža primjerenu socijalizaciju te im otvara vrata ka izlasku iz začaranog kruga siromaštva.

Abstract (english)

Education and poverty are closely related concepts because education can provide an individual with a better and more promising future. Socio-economic status has a major impact on children’s education. Its influence is visible both in the approach to educational programs and in the results of children's education. Inequalities in access to educational processes are already visible in preschool institutions that children of lower socio-economic status attend less frequently. Going to school, the material status of children comes to the fore. Children of higher socioeconomic status are beginning to exclude children of lower socioeconomic status from society. Children of lower socio-economic status often come from families in which the parents have achieved a lower level of education, and therefore do not encourage children to further education, and the educational success of these children is lower. What further emphasizes the unequal position of children of lower socioeconomic status is the unavailability of extracurricular activities. Most often, they need additional funding that their families are unable to finance. It is the
central government that should co-finance pre-school and education programs to a greater extent in order to increase the percentage of children from lower socio-economic status families who attend them. Participation in these educational programs improves the educational results of children, provides appropriate socialization and opens the door for them to get out of the vicious circle of poverty.
