Abstract [eng] The object of research – managerial possibilities of prevention of delinquent behavior of teenagers in primary education schools The goal of research – to analyze the managerial possibilities of prevention of delinquent behavior of teenagers in primary education schools The aims of research: 1. To find out what are the main expressive forms of delinquent behavior of teenagers in primary education schools. 2. To analyze the usage of preventive methods in solving the problem of delinquent behavior of teenagers in primary education schools. 3. To analyze the managerial possibilities of prevention of delinquent behavior of teenagers in primary education schools. The hypothesis of research It is believed that teachers do not have enough knowledge and competence in their work with teenagers who express delinquent behavior in primary education schools. It is believed that managerial possibilities of prevention of delinquent behavior of teenagers are not fully used in school. Conclusion 1. The main forms of delinquent behavior of teenagers in primary education schools include the usage of vulgarisms, bullying, alcohol usage, smoking, failure to do homework, and talking back. 2. It is found, that forming a preventive activity is topical in stopping a delinquent behavior of teenagers in schools. According to researchers, the most important steps in planning a preventive activity are determining the needs, picking the right methods for activity, and raising the qualification. Performing individual talks is the most frequently used form of activity involving child’s well being, while organizing various events is the most effective form of activity when trying to solve misbehavior problems in teenagers. This research has shown that most of the time, the people responsible for preventive activity are social teachers and psychologists. The involvement of other teachers or school administration is somewhat passive, and because of that, the quality of preventive activity may suffer. 3. The analysis of managerial possibilities of prevention of delinquent behavior of teenagers has revealed that schools cooperate a lot with inspectors of underage matters. In relation to other institutions, the cooperation is much more passive with the department of education, the coordination of municipalities group, NGOs. While planning a preventive activity, teachers face many problems: a lack of funds, information, competence; different opinions; inadequacy of plans and real work. This proves the second hypothesis of the research, where it is stated that schools do not fully use the managerial possibilities of preventive work. In planning a preventive activity, most of the attention is given to creating and updating systems of minimal to average supervision. Even though teachers have stated that they attend various seminars, where their knowledge of dealing with delinquent behavior problems is deepened, but as it was stated earlier, they still feel that they do not have enough knowledge and competence regarding these matters. This proves the hypothesis that teachers lack knowledge and competence regarding the problem of delinquent behavior having teenagers. Thus, school administrations should consider this information in order to gain an effective cooperation and successfully plan preventive activity in schools.
