Abstracts

The study presents the results of ethnographic interviews with selected mothers of Slovak kindergarten children and compares these results with the relevant English-American studies aimed at engagement of mothers in early education in relation to their educational and professional status. The research is focused on mothers’ preschool and primary school choice, engagement of mothers in preparation for the first grade of primary school, education values of mothers in relation to their school participation and perception. The study confirms the strong social differentiation in perception of education and in engagement of mothers in child’s schooling, although in comparison with English-American context there does not exists an extensive systemic social segregation in preschool education provision in Slovakia.
