Safety in elementary schools is a key factor influencing the quality of the educational environment. This research focuses on analysing current security measures at primary schools with the participation of pupils from marginalised Roma communities in eastern Slovakia, identifying the main threats and proposing possible improvements. Using qualitative and quantitative methods, we explored perceptions of safety among students, teachers and parents, and assessed existing safety measures.
