A GUIDEBOOK FOR TEACHERS

INTRODUCTION OF TBJU

"Determining the areas of strategic activities in the European Union by 2020, there has been assumed, that one of six people in these countries will be retarded within the range from mild to severe, which means that about 80 million Europeans often do not have full opportunity to participate in social and economic life, because of barriers related to environment and attitudes of their surroundings. The result is that the poverty rate of persons with disabilities is 70% higher than average "http://www.watchdogpfron.pl/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Krynska-Sytuacja- ON.pdf

Additionally the influence to the fact of isolating young people in a peer group, often having:

- bullying (61.5% of the respondents answered that they were a subject to harassment for more than half a year - http://www.ifp.uni.wroc.pl/data/files/pub-8406.pdf)

- addictions:

to the Internet (conclusions from the study of EUNETADB in 2013made for the Nobody's Children Foundation-1.3% of the respondents-Total of13.3%, 13 9% use the Internet in dysfunctional way. The highest percentage of those people-in Spain,Poland); currently addicted to the Internet are from few to several percent of Internet users, and risk of addiction may have about one-third of them-http://www.centrumterapiiuzaleznien.com/uzaleznienie-od-internetu-i-komputera

to drugs - "88% of respondents in Poland would like to spend more time for prevention, in the European-84%. Increased susceptibility for taking drugs is often related to social rejection (eg. crime of juveniles, expulsion from schools, poor education performance)"-www.cinn.gov.pl/portal?id=15&res_id=454227

"Among the EU countries Poland belongs to the group of countries with the highest percentage of children and young people endangered bythe risk of poverty:24% of children dependent of their parents are at risk of poverty"-http: //spolecznieodpowiedzialni.pl/files/file/595xroqs2fdx2t3x8uukmx8a1g6oj1.pdf.

Taking into consideration the above data and the conclusions establish ed from the discussions with our foreign partners,together we came to the idea,that the main problem in our schools is a feeling of rejection of many students, isolated by their contemporaries.It’s caused by: discrimination because of their low social status, disability, cultural identity, ethnic,religious, behavioral problems (can be aggressor or the victim of violence),learning difficulties, social and media pressure to"be the best, beautiful”, abuse problems (to the Internet,drugs). This feeling, being isolated often leads to drop out of school, causes depression, frustration, leads to moving away from society, results later in problems with getting a job,starting a family, is often a reason why young people try to take their own life.
