Sažetak
The traditional school system has not met the needs of students for
many years. Parents, in order to allow their children to move away from
the rigid class-subject-hour system, established schools. The founders
of alternative schools can be citizens, parents and teachers, religious
communities as well as other legal entities. These are the so-called free
schools, civic educational initiatives, reform pedagogical attempts, educational
boarding schools, etc. The aim of this paper is to present the
pedagogical concepts and ideas of schools in the Republic of Croatia
whose founders are parents. The paper presents the basic pedagogical
principles and aspects of teaching Waldorf and Montessori pedagogy
based on educational pluralism, a brief overview of partnership between
parents and schools in Croatia and the educational model of primary
Catholic schools “Ružičnjak” and “Lotrščak”. The observed schools are
located in Zagreb and have only one goal - to adapt the school to the
child. An effort is made to provide each student with an individual approach.
The starting points are the child’s needs and interests. These are
the schools where students have freedom of choice. The goal of upbringing
and education is the holistic development of the child. The emphasis
is on active learning methods and abandoning didactic scenarios in
which the child is only a passive observer.
