Schools for teaching children with deviant behavior. For difficult teenagers and children of the world: unusual schools of Sakhalin. Who are difficult teenagers and how they become

"Chance" is the only Moscow school for teenagers convicted under criminal articles. Five days a week, children live and study at school - they are allowed to go home on weekends. Now there are students convicted of theft, robbery, drug dealing and murder. The Village wanted to prepare a material about this educational institution for the general graduation of 11th graders, but it was not possible to obtain permission to communicate with students. A month later, an employee of Chance, who wished to remain anonymous, turned to the editors for another reason. He reported that in recent times disorder in the institution. Two students keep the rest of the children at bay, beat them up and extort money. The employees of the institution and the parents of the students are aware of the situation, but they are silent - the aggressors threaten them with violence and refer to connections in the department of social protection. The Investigative Committee and the Human Rights Council have already taken up the problem, but everything is kept secret.

The Village figured out how closed schools for criminal teenagers work and why this situation became possible.

"Godfather Misha Alekseev"

In June, four employees of the Chance school wrote a collective letter called "A Cry for Help!" (available to the editors). It states that the new director of "Chance" Kirill Kubarev is rarely in the building, and "in fact, one of the underage students is in charge of the school." Mikhail Alekseev (name changed. - Ed.) together with another student Andrey Karpin (name changed. - Ed.) beat other children and extort money.

The Chance specialist, who recently left the institution, says that Alekseev is “a very embittered boy who can send anyone, humiliate and insult anyone.” According to him, the teenager became the leader of the team after graduation in June, when the older guys left the school. Alekseev himself is less than 18 years old, he has been studying at Chance since 2015. Under what article he got there, it is not reported, but it is known that he will soon be released on parole. His accomplice - Karpin - is described by a former employee as a good boy who fell under the influence of Alekseev: “In a closed school, you have nowhere to go: you are either under Alekseev or against him and you get it. Moreover, Karpin recently lived with him in the same room.

Only boys aged 11 to 18 can study at a closed school, you can stay here for at least a year and no more than three years. There are currently 14 children in the school. It just won't fit anymore: the school grounds are a small two-story building and 300 square meters of a yard. Perhaps that is why teenagers study in another building on the second shift. They are taken by bus to the 196th school on the next street. There they study three or four people in a class.

All students are allowed to go to their families for the weekend, and if, upon returning, they do not bring gifts or money to Alekseev and Karpin, they will be beaten. For example, in order for the "godfather" to allow the use mobile phones, students pay him a thousand rubles. “At graduation, my son came up to me and asked me to lend him a loan, otherwise he’s a mess,” says Elena, the mother of one of the students (name changed at the request of the heroine. - Approx. ed.). From March to June, Elena regularly transfers money to Alekseev and Karpin so that her son is left alone. In total, she gave them more than 10 thousand rubles.

According to Elena, over the past three months, 12 students of the school received 17 serious injuries. Another The Village source talks about 15 injuries during this time and talks about the two most notable: “Mikhail Yartsev (names of students have been changed. - Ed.), 17 years old, - broke the eardrum and caused many injuries. Kazakov Roman, 16 years old, - the bones of the skull and nose were broken. Need an operation. Both were in the Morozov hospital.”

A former employee of the reintegration department at Chance says that all 12 teenagers were afraid of Alekseev: “He could not even say anything, he just entered the room, and the state of the guys immediately changed. I heard that two boys were in the hospital, but I don’t know the details - I had already quit by then.” The specialist repeatedly saw bruises on teenagers.

It was not possible to speak with the students of the school. Children do not discuss what is happening even with their parents. School staff say that the students do not complain, because "these guys have their own ideas" and so it is not accepted. “Guys say they hit the refrigerator or fell off the bunk bed. But they don't fall like that! Their arms and legs are damaged, the children's teeth fly out,” says Elena.

One of Chance's students is 13 years old and convicted of murder. “He is not a sociopath, he killed a man in a state of passion. With a height of 190 centimeters and a weight of more than 90 kilograms, he is so afraid of those guys that he sleeps with a stick under his pillow, ”the source said. Adolescents also threaten adults: Alekseev and Karpin told the mother of one of the students that she had better shut up, otherwise she would remain disabled for life. The woman told the editorial office that she filed a complaint with the police about the threats.

"Roof from the Department"

Teachers, doctors and psychologists at the school are aware of the beatings and extortion of money, but “they are silent because they are afraid,” says Elena. The former teacher of the school confirms that the school staff knew about the conflict situation.

The situation is complicated by the fact that Misha allegedly has a cover in the leadership of the Department of Labor and Social Security. As stated in the collective letter, “if any of the adults makes a remark to Misha, he threatens to call Petrosyan (Vladimir Arshakovich Petrosyan- Head of the department of labor and social protection. - Approx. ed.) and Barsukova (Tatiana Mitrofanovna Barsukova- Deputy Head of the Department of Labor and Social Protection. - Approx. ed.) and fired, as he had already fired several people: an educator on false charges, a regime officer and a director.

Former employee school says that the situation at the school was affected by the dismissal of the previous headmaster in March. (In December 2016, school students protested against the ill-treatment of the guards in the office. As a result, school director Natalia Weisner, who had been in charge of the school for three years, was fired. - Approx. ed.). Then “the leadership of the department of social protection shook hands with the boys and said:“ Guys, stick to this strategy, if one of the employees offends you, we will fire them. One employee did not want to work with Alekseev and asked to be attached to another child, but was refused. After that, she quit. “I was afraid of Alekseev, it was uncomfortable for me to be alone with him. After all, I didn’t come to prison to work, ”recalls the teacher.

In a conversation with The Village, the head of the department of labor and social protection, Vladimir Petrosyan, said that children cannot force someone to quit: “And if they can, it means that the person admitted his own impotence, and he is so weak that he quits without telling anyone, that the children made him.

In March, Kirill Kubarev was appointed to the place of the previous director, who previously worked as deputy director for educational and methodological work at the Economics and Technology College No. 22. By education, Kubarev is an economist-mathematician, he also studied for a master of business administration at the Synergy Institute. In 2002, the director of "Chance" became a candidate of pedagogical sciences, however, according to the website of the Moscow Department of Education, teacher education Kubarev does not.

In June, the school staff wrote a collective letter to the Investigative Committee, the Human Rights Council and Anna Kuznetsova, Commissioner for Children's Rights. It states that on June 19, Kubarev, together with a certain guest, left his office drunk and began to communicate with the students: in this form, drunk as an insole! According to the authors of the letter, the director's behavior was recorded on CCTV cameras. A former Chance employee who interacted with The Village did not catch this episode. However, she noted that Kubarev spent little time in a closed-type department: “I did not see that control was increased over the children or any special work was carried out. As it was, so it remains. I can’t say that Kubarev was eyeing this conflict.”

"Guys, stick to this strategy, if any of the employees offend you, we will fire them"

"The situation is always under the control of the department"

After a collective letter, they came to the school with a search. An anonymous source claims that a meeting was held at the Human Rights Council, which was attended by "people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs", school staff and parents of students. Advisor to the Ombudsman of the Russian Federation Maxim Ladzin confirmed this information to The Village and added that several meetings had been held at the HRC. Ladzin declined to comment, as "the parents of the students do not want media coverage of the problem."

The Village reached out to five active school employees for official comment, but they all refused to speak. Nurse "Chance" at the time of the correspondent's call was in the Investigative Committee and replied that she could not disclose confidential information. The school's doctor, Anton Kondratenko, said that during the investigation he was forbidden to distribute any information, as the school's employees were witnesses in the criminal case. After the situation at the school reached the HRC and the UK, Kondratenko quit the school - he told The Village correspondent about this. An anonymous source said that psychologist Marina Gudzenko also left Chance. Gudzenko herself declined to comment.

Kirill Kubarev

director of the school "Chance"

School "Chance" works in a normal, normal mode, nothing [unusual] happens. All other information - in the press service of the Department of Labor and Social Protection of the Population. I am not authorized to make any comments.

Vladimir Petrosyan

Head of the Department of Labor and Social Protection of the Population of the City of Moscow

The case is handled by the Investigative Committee, but no criminal case has been initiated. None of the boys confirmed either the beatings or the extortion of money. Let the police and investigators deal with it. I did not see the letter from the school staff, no one showed it to me. I have not talked to the teachers yet, because only yesterday (the conversation was recorded on July 13. - Approx. ed.) came out of vacation. Teachers and psychologists who went to Fedotov call the students irreparable criminals. This is not normal, so they confess their complete impotence. Yes, these are juvenile delinquents, but they cannot be branded for life, you need to work with them.

For the first time in my life I hear about the director's intoxication. By the way, under the previous director, the children confessed to me that there were beatings and so on. As a result, it all turned into a riot, and we fired the director. But none of the teachers complained about him. And for some reason they complain about the new one, who is interested in the fate and study of each child. In general, the situation in "Chance" is always under the control of the department.

Andrey Babushkin

member of the Expert Council under the Commissioner for Human Rights in the Russian Federation

I was at Chance just yesterday. There were no instigators, whom everyone complained about, at the school. One of them was taken into custody on suspicion of committing a crime (I don’t know which one), and the other is at home on bail. I will go to these guys.

At the meeting with me there were 11 or 12 people - I gave them a lecture. I know about injuries in children, but I didn’t notice anything myself. The children were liberated, they communicated with me freely, without arrogance and gave the impression of self-confident people.

Of course, the director is aware of all the problems, he worries and is ready to fight for each child as for his own. This is not an easy situation for him, and he expected support from the teaching staff, but only complaints were received against him. For him, this was a blow, he was somewhat discouraged by these showdowns. Probably, the teachers who wrote the complaint are right and fair somewhere, but somewhere their behavior is dictated by some personal grievances.

The conflicts that take place in this school are the conflicts on the submarine, that is, in enclosed space where it is impossible to spread your arms. The smaller the team, the more difficult the relationship in it. I also noticed that children live and study in a very cramped room. For them to feel comfortable, the yard should be at least twice as large.”

The Village source claims that one of the Chance students, Andrey Karpin, is currently in jail, and Mikhail Alekseev is on the run. Children's Ombudsman of Moscow Evgeny Bunimovich refused to comment on this information.

How it all works

In Russia, children convicted under criminal articles are sent to a juvenile colony, or - if the term is suspended - they are determined to stay at home. As those who spent time in educational colonies say, prison laws, violence and hazing await children there. The Moscow closed school "Chance" in Yuzhny Butovo is a cross between these two options. Children leave her not after the usual graduation, but after the expiration of the term of punishment.

As stated on the institution's website, the main principles of its work are "an individual approach, a family type of education, support and restoration of family ties, interdepartmental interaction." Chance has a reintegration department that works with students and graduates of educational colonies, convicted teenagers who are not deprived of their liberty, and with students of a closed school.

Chance is supervised by the Department of Education and Social Protection of the Population of Moscow. The decision to enroll in a closed school is made by the court. Parental consent is also required. Why the majority of convicted children end up in juvenile colonies, and the court sends some to Chance, is unknown. Some Moscow courts send teenagers there more often, others less often. According to the Children's Ombudsman of Moscow, Yevgeny Bunimovich, everything depends on the personality of the judge - "there is no good, well-oiled system here."

It would be wonderful and strange if such conflicts did not occur in closed schools. In general, the peculiarity of "Chance" is such that its students are periodically under investigation. I have been working with this school for a long time, and this is not the first such showdown.

In theory, such schools should take teenagers out of a criminogenic environment, but now the school is inefficient. The percentage of repeat offenders among graduates of such schools is higher than we would like. It's bad that after "Chance" children get back to their usual environment and the effect of re-education is often lost. Some students perceive this school as a sanatorium. They live in conditions much better than at home, they are taken on excursions and arrange sports competitions. But you need not only to entertain and educate, you need to prepare for future professions.

I like the positive experience of other countries, such as England, where convicted teenagers are placed in the families of police officers. On the one hand, children are punished, and on the other hand, they are in a family environment among trained police officers with a pedagogical education.

A situation where a leader appears in a community who dominates the rest can arise everywhere, even at Moscow State University. Another thing is that people with a wealthy family should work with convicted children. life experience, with a certain prestige and a good salary. It all depends on the teaching staff, which must resolve such conflicts. The more professional the team, the less conflicts there will be. And children, of course, use their rights, which they have more than teachers, or the fact that a school employee cannot cope with work.

In any case, teachers cannot look after students 24 hours a day. The teacher turned away, and the child stuck a compass in the neighbor's ass. There are also restrooms that teachers cannot enter, and there is also night time.

Yes, special schools and prisons are bad, but they should be, this is a severe necessity. In any society there will be people who have not found a place in life. And in adolescence, there are more such people than in any other. A special school is the penultimate chance, if not the last chance, for the child to change his mind and start living a normal life.

Deviant behavior is characterized very extensively - different from generally accepted norms. However, there are a lot of reasons for the emergence of such behavior, as well as the forms of its manifestation. It must be understood that not always the actions of a person, strikingly different from social stereotypes, pose a threat to the individual and the society around him. But teenagers deviant behavior just distinguishes destructiveness even in relation to itself.

Deviant and mentally retarded are not the same

Even representatives of medicine, psychology and pedagogy interpret manifestations of deviant behavior in different ways, to say nothing of people who are far from scientific terminology. Therefore, when the administration of a general education school offers parents a transfer to a special school for children with deviant behavior, they often panic. Consciousness instantly draws terrible images - a colony behind barbed wire or a boarding school for children with mental disabilities. However, deviant behavior can be characteristic even of a very gifted child, who causes a lot of trouble for teachers and parents with his hyperactivity.

The older generation is much clearer about the term “difficult” teenager, but in the course of reforming the education system, this concept has lost its relevance and is under an unspoken ban. Now there are children who find themselves in a difficult life situation or a "social risk group". But this did not make it easier for teachers. In fact, the transfer from a general education school to a special one is the rarest case, because the number of such children is increasing every year. If a child from a completely prosperous family, but with a weak character, suddenly succumbed to a bad influence, then parents are often aware of this fact and try to correct the situation together with the school. But what to do with families where deviant behavior is the norm for all her household members?

What is the difference between a school for children with deviant behavior

I must say that educational institutions for deviant children are different. Only adolescents who have committed a criminal offense are admitted to a special institution of a closed type, where conditions of temporary isolation are created under round-the-clock supervision of the security service. In most cases, children with deviant behavior are taught in open schools. That's just the conditions of study are strikingly different from the usual comprehensive school.

First distinguishing feature is the class size (5–10 students). The second is the number of employees of the institution per student of such a school. 40-45 teachers and accompanying personnel in the form of educators and psychologists direct their sensitive gaze at 70 pupils. And this is not a whim, but a real need. After all, children are not punished there and not just taught, but also treated. Not only physical wounds are treated, but what is much more difficult - mental wounds.

Moreover, such children are instilled with skills that have long been obvious to children from a comprehensive school, and when taught jointly by “others”, this will at best cause ridicule. It happens that children enrolled in a special school have no idea even about soup and porridge and how to eat it.

What inspired the idea of connection

Yes, the maintenance of such an institution costs a lot of money and, perhaps, it is not profitable at a time of active modernization. Russian education when funding for each school is based on the number of students. Surely, it is precisely the considerations of economy that caused a heated discussion of the planned merger of schools for children with deviant behavior with general education schools, which is planned so far only in the capital. However, it is worth considering how such an innovation will turn out for children of difficult fate and teachers who, if these schools are closed, will be laid off.

A special school is, first of all, a full-time school. But practitioners note that such children require a dimensionless day. Moreover, it was noticed that with a large crowd of people, children with deviant behavior often have relapses, characterized by aggressive attacks towards others. Officials promise that the fate of each deviant child will be decided individually. Someone can be placed in a regular one, others will form separate classes.

However, it is always easier to destroy a system that has been created for decades than to create a new one. And there are no guarantees that it will be perfect. Number of children in special schools in last years did not decrease. On the contrary, in addition to the 80 students available at the beginning of the school year, on average, another 20 people usually enroll in directions during the year. by merging with a special one.

Instruction 1 Prepare documents for registration of a child in a boarding school. In addition to his birth certificate and passport, if he has reached the age of 14, you will need to present his medical card, as well as a health certificate. For children who need placement in a special boarding school, for example, in a psycho-neurological one, a conclusion of the medical commission should be prepared on assigning them a disability or on a diagnosis if their condition is not so serious. Additionally, you will need a certificate from the passport office on the state of the child's living space in which he lives at the moment. Papers confirming the status of the child will also come in handy - a court decision on the deprivation of parental rights, an act on the abandonment of the child. 2 Contact the district education department and explain the situation to them.

How to apply for a boarding school

Attention

Oleg. I have a child after our divorce with my husband, as if he had broken the chain.

At the age of 10, he started drinking and smoking, got in touch with a group of older people, abandoned his studies, began to play truant at school, was rude at home, swearing, then he began to steal and fight. in a year and a half, he did such things, that they also frightened me with a colony and offered to hand over to a special school. his dad is not the best role model, he is also a dunce and a reveler. therefore, the cries of the child that he wants to live with his dad, I did not perceive at all. Well, here's how, and so dismissed the child to send to a dysfunctional dad? But well, we came across a very competent specialist psychologist, he managed to explain to me that the child has the right to choose his own path. I let go. went to live with his father. At first, there were no changes for the better. but we communicated remotely, via skype phone, on the advice of a psychologist, I didn’t ask anything at all and didn’t start moralizing conversations.

Helping dependent families

Adolescence begins when a child crosses the border of ten or eleven years, and continues until the age of 15-16.
The child in this period begins to perceive the world as an adult, to model the behavior of elders, to independently draw conclusions.
The child has a personal opinion, he is looking for his place in society.

Increasing interest in the inner world. A teenager knows how to set goals and achieve them.

In addition to psychological changes, during this period of time, there are physiological changes: the child is growing rapidly, secondary sexual characteristics appear, the hormonal background changes, and so on.

Teenage Problems Teenagers have problems for a variety of reasons.

How and where you can attach a difficult teenager

This is a closed boarding school for difficult teenagers, which means that children come here by court order.

There is iron discipline, perimeter movement and checkpoints at the entrance.

There is a boarding school for difficult teenagers in Moscow.

Establishment No. 9 is located on Boris Zhigulenkov Street in house 15, building 1.

Unlike St. Petersburg, this boarding school is open.
Children with deviant behavior can also get here by the decision of their parents or the recommendation of a special commission. The rules here are not as strict as in institutions of a closed type.

Are they re-educational? difficult teenagers? I must say that the problems of each difficult teenager are different.

It happens that it takes only one month to teach a child to be responsible for his actions, and it happens that a teenager needs six months to adapt.

Much depends on what psychological problems the boy or girl is experiencing at the moment.

What to do with a troubled teenager? go to boarding school?

A troubled teenager often commits illegal acts, unreasonably risky actions. Depression and anxiety may appear. There are signs that your child is difficult.
They are listed below:

Change in appearance. Unjustified weight gain or loss, self-harm.
Frequent quarrels, fights, complaints.
Poor academic performance, sleep disturbances, depression, suicidal thoughts.
Use of drugs, alcohol.
A sharp change in the circle of communication, refusal to follow certain rules, lies, and so on.

The presence of problems in a teenager is the first signal that you need to establish contact with him.
Your son or daughter should feel supported, understand that his parents love and accept him in any case.

Before the case is considered in court, the juvenile undergoes a medical examination and is referred to a psychiatrist.

If the parents do not agree to these measures, all procedures are carried out by a court decision.

Temporary detention centers Before a court hearing, a child may be sent to a temporary detention center for up to 30 days. This happens in the following cases:

when the protection of the life or health of the adolescent must be ensured;
it is necessary to prevent a repeated socially dangerous act;
if the child has nowhere to live;
the violator avoids appearing in court or does not pass a medical examination.

Boarding schools in St. Petersburg and Moscow The most famous boarding school for difficult teenagers (St. Petersburg) is a closed school No. 1. The institution traces its history back to 1965. It is located on Akkuratova street at number 11.
Prepare documents for registering a child in a boarding school.

In addition to his birth certificate and passport, if he has reached the age of 14, you will need to present his medical card, as well as a health certificate.

For children who need placement in a special boarding school, for example, in a psycho-neurological one, a conclusion of the medical commission should be prepared on assigning them a disability or on a diagnosis if their condition is not so serious. Additionally, you will need a certificate from the passport office on the state of the child's living space in which he lives at the moment.

Papers confirming the status of the child will also come in handy - a court decision on the deprivation of parental rights, an act on the abandonment of the child.

Contact your local education department and explain the situation to them.

It is allowed to transfer to a boarding school not only children left without relatives, but also those whose mother or father found themselves in a difficult life situation.

Difficult teenagers are now being talked about everywhere, and psychologists regularly sound the alarm because of the psychological problems that such children have. How does a school for difficult teenagers function, and can a child get a full-fledged education there?

The main features of the work of the school for difficult teenagers

A boarding school for difficult teenagers is a special organization where children who experience serious learning difficulties or who are faced with repeated violations of the law go. Many children studying here suffer from serious psychological problems, due to unjustified aggression towards others.

Of course, it is not easy to teach such teenagers, because they are strongly opposed to acquiring new knowledge. That is why the school for difficult teenagers works exclusively experienced teachers, those who can cope with the character of their pupils. Such institutions are characterized by iron discipline, since it is precisely this discipline that helps to educate obedience in children. Here, children are monitored not only during lessons, but also in the process of everyday rest. The task of teachers is to try to correct the behavior of a teenager, returning him to a normal life in society.

fall into such specialized school, mainly by court order due to serious misconduct by a schoolboy. That is why the local atmosphere cannot be called truly benevolent. At the same time, teachers working at a school for difficult teenagers do not show aggression and do not engage in assault. Education here takes place in the same way as in a regular school, but under greater control and supervision of adults.

The first thing teachers do when they receive new student- it checks the level of his knowledge and intellectual abilities. To do this, the child is given a series of tests that clearly demonstrate his student skills. Sometimes it happens that children who had a hard time in life simply could not pay enough attention to learning. That is why the level of their intellectual skills leaves much to be desired. In special boarding schools for difficult teenagers, teachers individually approach the skills and abilities of each child. That is why a teenager can be taught an elementary school program if special tests have shown a significant lag in the level of intellectual development.

Another important point training in such a school is constant consultations with a psychologist. It has long been noted that most difficult teenagers have very serious psychological problems that affect both their academic performance and their behavior. The task of educational institutions for difficult children is precisely to correct such problems in terms of psychological development, which is why consultations with a psychologist play such an important role in normalizing the state of a teenager. Usually, consultations with a psychologist are held individually, and at each of them the specialist tries to get to the bottom of the true source of the teenager's problems.

Education in such schools takes place in the same subjects as in ordinary educational institutions. Attention is paid to standard academic subjects, as well as classes in physical culture and labor. Usually, training takes place in a boarding school format, that is, children remain under the supervision of teachers throughout the day, but on weekends they can visit their parents. Such a system of education helps adults not only control children, but also become close friends for them. After a difficult period of adaptation, a teenager begins to get used to teachers, and established friendships help the child get out of a difficult life situation.

Can a boarding school re-educate a troubled teenager?

It is worth noting that the level of development of problems for each difficult teenager is different. Sometimes 2-3 weeks are enough for a child to get into a rut and begin to control their actions, and sometimes they need several months just to adapt. Of course, everything here is individual and depends on the degree of development of psychological problems in the child.

Now teachers all over Russia are actively discussing whether the work of such schools is productive for difficult teenagers, and whether they can return the child to a normal life. The statistics is relentless: more than 70% of all students of such boarding schools begin to do better in school subjects, and their level of aggression is noticeably reduced. Due to the constant monitoring of experienced teachers and the individual selection of a learning system, children begin to better learn school material. In addition, in such institutions, children do not just study, but spend almost all their free time here. Gradually, they make new friends, communication with peers becomes a powerful incentive to change their behavior.

An important moment in the re-education of a difficult teenager is extracurricular activities with a teacher. In such extra classes, teachers try to awaken in children the foundations of moral and correct ethical behavior. For example, in boarding schools, additional class hours are often held on the topic of patriotism, respect for the outside world and for elders. The more diverse the pedagogical approaches of a professional to work on such electives, the more successfully the children will learn the social and social norms discussed in the lesson.

In the process of working with difficult teenagers, not only the activities of teachers and psychologists are important, but also correct behavior parents. So, for example, if adults support their child in every possible way, try to prove to him their love and the need to change their behavior, then children also have much more incentives to improve their academic performance. Many teachers who work with difficult teenagers hold special conversations with their parents, explaining how they should behave so that the child's aggression is a thing of the past. As mentioned above, many schools operate as boarding schools, and children stay in them throughout the week, except for weekends. When a student arrives home for the weekend, parents should do everything to protect the teenager from the temptations associated with the old way of life.

Modern schools for troubled teenagers are popping up all over the country, but one of the best institutions of this type was founded in Moscow in 2012. In addition to modern equipment and highly qualified staff, children here get the opportunity to develop their creative abilities in every possible way. Teenagers in such a school can attend drawing classes, can actively engage in sports or dance. All this helps not only to improve the behavior of the child, but also to expand the scope of his interests. Gradually, the love of science and new hobbies will supersede the teenager's desire to get into fights and break the law.

Such educational institution can help not only in improving academic performance, but also in the difficult getting rid of bad habits. Schools for troubled teenagers Special attention devoted to the fight against nicotine and alcohol addiction. They try to wean children from smoking by all available means, explaining the consequences of bad habits for the body. Now, many children experiencing serious psychological problems associated with adolescence are trying to find a kind of outlet in bad habits, not even suspecting how much it harms their health.

It is not worth expecting that a difficult teenager will be re-educated in 2-3 days, since this difficult process sometimes takes months, and sometimes years. Thanks to a clear daily routine and a properly drawn up schedule for each teenager, the student learns to control his life.

Often the character of a difficult teenager changes so much that only a professional in special institutions can help him. Constant consultations with a psychologist and regular electives - all this helps a teenager get rid of outbursts of anger and fits of rage, returning to a normal life in society and to studying in a regular school.

If at the word "special school" or "closed schools" you have an association exclusively with an educational institution where they study in depth, say, foreign language then you are very lucky. This means that you are not aware that there are others closed schools for difficult teenagers. But even if you managed to raise worthy and problem-free children, you should be aware of such schools, because those who study in them (or are kept, as they say there), need help. Difficult children and teenagers are not to blame either for being born in marginalized families, or for the fact that they did not want to mess with them in a regular school. Most of these children are victims of the indifference of well-to-do adults who have passed by, pretending that the problem does not concern them.

Who are difficult teenagers and how they become

Difficult children and teenagers are children with deviant behavior. Simply put, difficult - children who commit acts that do not fit into generally accepted ideas about morality and morality. They do not go to school, defiantly ignore the comments of teachers and parents, among them a large percentage of alcoholics, drug addicts and substance abusers, as well as delinquents.

It has been noted that the less stable the economy, the more serious the shocks that the state is experiencing, the more urgent the problem of the so-called difficult teenagers. Everything is explained very simply - the more problems adults have, the less time they spend with children, they pay less attention to them. Most pupils of closed schools for difficult teenagers complain about the fact that their parents did not give a damn about them. And you think in vain that only marginal children get into this educational institution with iron bolts and a high fence. There are also those whose parents are well-to-do, respected people. But in the pursuit of well-being, they spent so much energy that they no longer had any opportunity to just talk with their own child. Yes, and what to say to him - well-fed, shod, dressed, everything is there, what is not, then we will buy it. It turned out that not everything can be bought, no matter how trite it sounds. For example, a trusting relationship with a son or daughter is not sold or bought, but carefully built over the years, and at the cost of great mental effort.

Whose problems does the special school solve?

They don’t bring mothers to these schools by the hand - they bring them here in cars with barred windows. They come here by court order. Well, and other sad signs: a checkpoint, movement around the perimeter, iron discipline.

Of course, there are exemplary-glossy establishments. So, according to the media, a special school for teenagers has opened in Moscow, which, apparently, will become the best in Russia. It is built on a special project. “A swimming pool, greenhouses, greenhouses are provided, GYM's, workshops, stadium and much more. The school will have its own piece of land, surrounded by a fence. In general, bars are not supposed to be installed in the new institution, and even the number of guards will be reduced to the very minimum so that teenagers do not feel like they are in prison. However, none of them will be able to arbitrarily leave the school thanks to modern technical means of security.” Creepy, isn't it?

Of course, in special schools these children are seriously taken care of - they teach general education subjects, they try to instill at least some craft skills, socially adapt. Here, as a rule, random people do not work. The teachers of such closed schools for difficult teenagers are high professionals who thoroughly know the methods of working with difficult children. Teaching difficult children is always associated with great difficulties - after all, most of them either did not go to school at all, or got there extremely rarely. It happens that overage students are engaged in the program of elementary grades of ordinary comprehensive schools.

Does such a closed school for difficult teenagers solve their problems? Employees of special schools believe that it is more likely no than yes. After leaving such an institution, children behave decently and do not commit any illegal actions for a month, at most two. And then they again contact the same (or another) company, and again alcohol, drugs, theft. After all, in fact, nothing has changed - the same parents, the same friends. It turns out that, by isolating a teenager, society first of all takes care of itself - out of sight, out of mind. You can’t see them behind high fences - well, okay.

Is there a way out?

How to help a troubled teenager What should society, you and me, do to make such unfortunate children as few as possible? Prevention, and again prevention. Start with yourself. Remember how long ago you had a heart-to-heart talk with your child? They didn’t get into his soul, they didn’t press him with moralizing, but they talked - as with an adult, equal.

Puberty is the most difficult. But it is difficult, believe me, not only for you and your child, but also for him with himself. Changes that occur at the physical, hormonal levels are inevitably accompanied by changes in character. Try to follow the advice of psychologists. Do not beat around the bush, do not look for tricky "approaches", do not complain that you are not familiar with the methods of working with difficult children. Having chosen a convenient moment, directly say that, they say, you perfectly understand what is happening to him now, that you yourself went through it. And most importantly, let him know that you are not angry with him, but they do not intend to let everyone down, because he is an adult and, therefore, must be responsible for his words and actions. And one more advice of psychologists. Find something for your child to enjoy, download it to the maximum. By the way, teachers and educators of schools for difficult teenagers follow the same path.

Or maybe a cadet?

Recently, in order to help a troubled teenager, open-type schools for children with deviant behavior have appeared, that is, teenagers go there not by a court decision, but by the direction of the commission on juvenile affairs or at the request of their parents. Education of difficult children here, just like in closed special schools, takes place in parallel with social adaptation, classes with a psychologist.

Well, for parents who do not feel the strength to cope with their children, today there is another opportunity to solve the problem - to entrust their education to teachers of cadet boarding schools.

A cadet school is not a special school at all, and certainly not a prison. Difficult teenagers are not necessarily taught here, although for the most part they are still children from incomplete, socially unprotected or dysfunctional families. In other words, at risk. In cadet schools, the same preventive measures that we spoke about are carried out. Iron discipline reigns here, and the teachers of these schools see the upbringing of real men as their task. But here they do not suppress the personality, but direct the violent energy of adolescents into the right, useful channel for them.

Today in the capital, for example, it is not easy to enter the cadet corps - the competition reaches seven people per place, that is, as it has been from time immemorial, cadet education is becoming an elite one. Of course, children from socially unprotected families have benefits.

Well, discipline, a clear distribution of time, attentive teachers, methods of working with difficult children and adolescents that have been developed over the years - perhaps all this will save a teenager from the street, will not let him turn onto a crooked path. But no teacher can replace mom and dad.

It is known that a society is judged by how children and the elderly live in it. Take a walk in the late afternoon through any sleeping area - if you are not afraid, of course. These and cans of cheap alcohol leading to - someone's children. No matter how they live, it means that not everything is in order with all of us.

Special schools are not only educational institutions with in-depth study of mathematics or French. It is also essentially a prison boarding school for teenagers under 14 years old. Although legally, of course, special schools do not belong to the penitentiary system, but to the Ministry of Education.

The fact is that teenagers under 14 cannot be sent to places of deprivation of liberty according to the law. Therefore, for children who have committed crimes, special schools are a kind of colony.

I remember we had a hooligan boy in the 5th grade. He robbed youngsters, often fought, teachers said about him: he would end up in jail. Once in a fight he knocked out another kid's eye. After that, we all heard this harsh word - "special school". That's where our bully was sent.

What is a special school? Officially, this institution is called so - an educational institution of a closed type. That is, in fact, a boarding school. Teenagers of 11-14 years old who have committed criminal acts get there.

Until the age of 14 in Russia, children are not subject to criminal prosecution, although legislators have been cherishing the idea of lowering this age for many years, which, in principle, is logical. Crime is getting younger. Now there are both ten-year-old killers and twelve-year-old sexual maniacs. There are many who, after the crimes committed
do not bear any criminal responsibility. Childhood and teenage crime is quite natural - in Russia there are a huge number of homeless children.

Special schools for all juvenile delinquents are sorely lacking. Although it also happens that the special school is filled to half its limit: there are too many escapes. It is not difficult to make a "jerk" from there. I spoke with a convict who was serving a sentence in a juvenile colony, and before that he spent a year and a half in a special school. He said that it was easy to escape from this place and the guys gave a tear every week.

According to the teachers of these closed institutions, many of their "guests" do not know how to read and write at all. Therefore, it is almost impossible to build an educational process with them. According to statistics, 88% of graduates of special schools subsequently end up in prison. I spoke with one of these, Anton V., when he was already in the pre-trial detention center. He landed in a special school at the age of thirteen for domestic murder. Coming out of it, he held out for a year, and then for robbery he landed in the “juvenile” zone. Well, now and at all on the "adult". This is the career ladder. And it all started with a special school. These are really teenage "universities" in front of the zone. And the orders there are appropriate.

In principle, a special school, although it is not an institution related to the prison system, according to a veil, it certainly is. Already there, children receive basic behind-the-barrel knowledge: there is also a common fund, there are their own authorities and “offended”. When at such a tender age something is laid in the head, then this is for life. If everything is fine with the “concepts” in special schools, then everything is very bad with the protection of such institutions. Almost only women work as teachers, and they are not particularly upset about running away - anyway, there are not enough funds for all the children.

Concern about a large number of juvenile delinquents walking free, resulted in the authorities not so long ago in the idea of increasing the number of special schools. Of course, on the one hand, this is correct. But in their current form, special schools and orphanages can injure a child's psyche even more than the street with its cruel laws of survival. In addition to the fact that children from a very early age live according to the laws of the zone, their teachers, “guardians”, sometimes do such atrocities!

Probably, every six months there is this or that scandal around a sadistic teacher who regularly beats, rapes, and tortures children. And in principle, teachers do not show much zeal for their work for ridiculous money. And this work is extremely difficult: difficult children are not sugar. In many correctional colonies, it has now been possible to establish both living conditions and the educational process. Therefore, in the case of special schools, it is worth starting with this. And a simple increase in the number of schools will only establish conveyor deliveries to the zones of young, but already literate in all criminal bells and whistles, criminals.

It may be worth lowering the age of criminal responsibility for juvenile delinquents. After all, the special school gives them a sense of impunity: no matter what you do, even murder, nothing will happen to you. After all, such a feeling of permissiveness remains for life, that's what's scary. In this case, it is appropriate to recall the famous case. It thundered throughout the Soviet Union.

The only case in history when a juvenile murderer was sentenced to death and carried out. This teenager smoked from the age of 4, from the age of 7 he was registered in the children's room of the police, stole, drank. On the day of his fifteenth birthday, Neiland brutally murdered a woman and her two-year-old son. The purpose of the murders is a raid on a wealthy apartment. I got the idea from the Izvestia newspaper, where the adventures of Vladimir Ionesyan, a well-known mugger named Mosgaz, were published in those days. On the corpse of a woman, 17 chopped wounds, 32 bruises and 33 abrasions were later found. To the question of the investigator: why did Neiland need to kill also a two-year-old boy, the killer shrugged his shoulders: “When the woman screamed, the child woke up and began to cry loudly. I got angry with him and first stunned him, and then hit him on the head with an ax until he stopped talking.

The main features of the work of the school for difficult teenagers

Of course, it is not easy to teach such teenagers, because they are strongly opposed to acquiring new knowledge. That is why only experienced teachers work at the school for difficult teenagers, those who can cope with the character of their pupils. Such institutions are characterized by iron discipline, since it is precisely this discipline that helps to educate obedience in children. Here, children are monitored not only during lessons, but also in the process of everyday rest. The task of teachers is to try to correct the behavior of a teenager, returning him to a normal life in society.

They get into such a specialized school, mainly by a court decision due to serious misconduct by a student. That is why the local atmosphere cannot be called truly benevolent. At the same time, teachers working at a school for difficult teenagers do not show aggression and do not engage in assault. Education here takes place in the same way as in a regular school, but under greater control and supervision of adults.

In special boarding schools for difficult teenagers, teachers individually approach the skills and abilities of each child. That is why a teenager can be taught an elementary school program if special tests have shown a significant lag in the level of intellectual development.

Another important point of studying in such a school is constant consultations with a psychologist. It has long been noted that most difficult teenagers have very serious psychological problems that affect both their academic performance and their behavior.

Usually, training takes place in a boarding school format, that is, children remain under the supervision of teachers throughout the day, but on weekends they can visit their parents. Such a system of education helps adults not only control children, but also become close friends for them. After a difficult period of adaptation, a teenager begins to get used to teachers, and established friendships help the child get out of a difficult life situation.

Can a boarding school re-educate a troubled teenager?

In the process of working with difficult teenagers, not only the activities of teachers and psychologists are important, but also the correct behavior of parents. So, for example, if adults support their child in every possible way, try to prove to him their love and the need to change their behavior, then children also have much more incentives to improve their academic performance. Many teachers who work with difficult teenagers hold special conversations with their parents, explaining how they should behave so that the child's aggression is a thing of the past.
