A documentary entitled “Fair <strong>Schools</strong>”<br />

See <strong>for</strong> y<strong>our</strong>selves that coeducation of all<br />

children works.<br />

In cooperation with professionals we have made<br />

a documentary about inclusive education, that<br />

is about the education of physically or socially<br />

disadvantaged or otherwise diff erent children<br />

in standard schools and classes. Although inclusion<br />

is a common and successful education<br />

system adopted abroad, in the Czech Republic<br />

it is still met with prejudices. That is why we<br />

have decided to publicly present three Czech<br />

schools that started applying the inclusion principles<br />

and successfully integrated pupils with<br />

physical or mild intellectual disabilities, autistic<br />

children, Roma children but also exceptionally<br />

gifted children who need special pedagogical<br />

assistance as well.<br />

The fi lm will present three children and their<br />

parents, teachers and classmates. <strong>We</strong> will show<br />

How to become a fair school II<br />

Inclusive education in practice<br />

The “How to become a fair school” manual<br />

has another volume. It is primarily intended<br />

<strong>for</strong> head teachers and teachers at elementary<br />

schools. You can fi nd there inspiring texts on<br />

inclusive education written by fair schools head<br />

teachers themselves. It also contains many interesting<br />

tips on classes and lessons. To help you<br />

orientate y<strong>our</strong>selves in this <strong>issue</strong> we have provided<br />

explanation of the most important terms<br />

and answers to frequently asked questions of<br />

teachers and pupils. Apart from this, you can<br />

learn about new features prepared by the Ministry<br />

of Education, Youth and Sports in the fi eld<br />

of legislation concerning children with special<br />

educational needs.<br />

CHEERING FOR JUSTICE!<br />

The rights of children are one of <strong>our</strong> major<br />

priorities here at the League of Human Rights.<br />

<strong>We</strong> think that if we do not help children get<br />

quality education and grow up in a family environment,<br />

we will probably sentence them<br />

to a life on the edge of the society. Thanks to<br />

y<strong>our</strong> support we can better en<strong>for</strong>ce the rights<br />

of children in practice.<br />

How to fairly compensate patients?<br />

Video <strong>for</strong> experts and others<br />

To familiarize the general public with the <strong>issue</strong><br />

of compensation <strong>for</strong> accidental damage in health<br />

care we have made a short documentary entitled<br />

“How to fairly compensate patients?” <strong>We</strong><br />

have used the example of an action brought by<br />

the bereaved family of the late Mrs Pechoušová<br />

to show you how diffi cult it is to orientate oneself<br />

in the Czech legislation concerning similar<br />

cases.<br />

Marie Cilínková, an attorney, will talk about her<br />

<strong>for</strong>ty years of experience with the defence of patients’<br />

rights. Gerald Bachinger, the head of the<br />

Patientenanwalt in Lower Austria, will explain<br />

how the Austrian system of compensations<br />

works. And LIGA will present their suggestions<br />

and recommendations on how to systematically<br />

solve the <strong>issue</strong> of patients’ compensation.<br />

You can watch the video at the LIGA’s YouTube<br />

channel.<br />
