摘要：The authors analyse part of the findings of the research project “Development and growth of migrant children”, in which teachers evaluated the behaviour of pupils at school. The sample consisted of three groups of pupils in elementary and in the first grades of secondary school in Zagreb: 1) returnees from Germany, 2) non-migrant pupils (the control group) and 3) non-migrant children with parents abroad. In total, the sample consisted of 300 pupils (100 in each group). Teachers evaluated the behaviour of pupils with the help of “Rutter's questionnaire for pupil behaviour”. The findings indicate that in all three groups there are children that show certain be¬havioural disturbances, although the groups differ in regard to the type of manifested disturbance. Thus, returnee children show certain symptoms of neurotic behaviour, and they are the least liked among their fellow pupils. The teachers noted that non-migrant children (the control group) had the most problems: among them agressive behavior is dominant. These children are the most lonely, and they most often complain and express their grief to teachers. Among non-migrant children whose parents are abroad there are some whose behaviour is neurotic (with emphasized anxiety), and there is more frequent truancy. The research results indicate that a different teaching approach is needed towards the different groups of children, since their problems are diverse, and schools do not pay sufficient attention to diversity in the behaviour of pupils.
