Savanorių įtraukimas į socioedukacinės pagalbos vaikams organizavimą mokykloje

LTMokytojams ir mokyklos socialiniams pedagogams ne visada pasiseka sėkmingai išspręsti vaikų problemas. Mokyklų socialiniai pedagogai, spręsdami vaikų problemas, gali pasitelkti ir kitus svarbius asmenis (žmones, kurie gali turėti lemiamą ar svarbią įtaką sprendžiant vaiko problemas). Nevyriausybinių organizacijų savanoriai gali mokyklų socialiniams pedagogams padėti spręsti vaikų problemas, padėdami pažinti neformalią aplinką, kurioje dažniausiai kyla tam tikrų elgesio, bendravimo ir kitokių problemų. Siekdami, kad teikiama socioedukacinė pagalba būtų efektyvesnė, socialiniai pedagogai ir savanoriai turi gerai išmanyti savo veiklos ypatumus. Todėl socialinių pedagogų ir savanorių socioedukacinė pagalba užtikrintų vaikų gerovę bendrojo lavinimo mokykloje.
