THE SOCIAL EXCLUSION OF IMMIGRANTS AND THE ROMANIAN ETHNIC GROUP AND THE PROBLEMS WITH THEIR SITUATION IN SLOVENIAN SCHOOLS AND IN EDUCATION Print E-mail

Nevenka Podgornik

Abstract

The social exclusion of Romani in Slovenia is complicated and multi-dimensional. The Romani are a marginalized social group, their social position is distinctly inferior to the majority of the population, as in the material sphere as with education, the profession and the employment opportunities. Because of their low socio-economic and ethnic status, the Romani do not attain the same possibilities of integration in the educational system. In Slovenia, like in the other states of the EU, the problems with the lower education level are present with the immigrants too. The article exposes the educational and the employment opportunities for Romani and the immigrants in Slovenia.

Key words: immigrants, Romani, Slovenian schools, education, employment, inclusion
