Informal education of the marginalized young is a way for their integratation in the general
society. The success of the process is linked to its adjustment to the specific needs of the
group which stem from its physical and social deprivation and isolation. A research on
educational attitudes of the young coming from the unhygenic settlements (YUHS) was
conducted. Custom-made questionnaire with multiple choice questions was administered
to 148 subjects 15–20 years old, with one half consisting of YUHS and the other of the
young from the general population (YGP). Data wasa analyzed using desctiptive statistics
(frequences and percentages). YUHS value school more than YGP and assign greater social
relevance to it. Studying is valued more if perceived to provide practical skills for finding
employment. Education based on respect, acceptance and trust between the teachers and
other students, and basic physical conditions for studying at home are needed. YUHS prefer
studying by ...themselves (as opposed to group studying), understandable presentation (as
opposed to learning through play), older female teachers and gender – mixed study groups.
On the other hand, confusing and uninteresting materials, punishment as behavioural control
and discrimination hinder studying. Based on the data, recommendations for adjustment of
educational conditions to the YUHS’ needs are formulated.
