The School’s Role in the Process of Constructing the Role of Pupil of Secondary Education

Abstract

Taking the role of the student of secondary education is connected with the necessity to learn new behaviors because existing and well mastered behaviors are ineffective. It initiates psychosocial changes. Adaptation to the role may be a form of development. However, it may cause difficulties when a student is experiencing only the external pressures and does not have appropriate resources and does not receive social support. The text shows the nature and importance of social support for students building the role on the secondary level. Additionally, it focuses on teachers’ tasks.
