This text deals with the setting up of IUFM (French teacher training colleges) and the resulting implementation of a professionalization project for teachers. Initially the purpose was to construct new formalized professional knowledge that would get beyond traditional notions of practical skill or personal
qualities. However this project did not lead to any clear identification of what this new knowledge should be.
A survey on the « professional test », which was supposed to measure acquisition of the new knowledge, shows in fact that the test remained fairly close to traditional notions of competence. But the conditions inherent in a typically formal situation such as a competitive exam make evaluation of only slightly formalized skills problematic. These tests are observed to discriminate slightly candidates according to mother's level of education, whereas marks received in classical disciplinary-content exams are logically correlated with the candidate's own diploma. In fact, what these « professional » tests favour above all is a relativist attitude toward knowledge.

The topic of this article covers cultural particularities of adaptive abilities and competences of Romany children of younger school age as the basis for elementary school education in Slovakia. The presented article consists of a theoretical and a research part. The main theoretical points of the thesis are based on the research key terms, which are used in the formulation of the surveyed problem. These are defined in details in particular chapters of the mentioned theoretical part of the dissertation thesis. The goal of the thesis research was to gain information – by qualitative and quantitative research methods – about cultural specific features of family education in Roma children, cultural particularities and attitudes of Roma parents to school attendance of children, about adaptive abilities and competences of a Roma child that are preferred in family and community, differences in the parents’ demands on adaptive abilities and competences of a Roma child in relation to the child’s gender and age, to the gender and educational level of the parent, to the Roma sub-group (Rumunger and Hungarian Roma), to the social and economical level of the family and the type of community. We suppose that the gained data can be a relevant basis for educational processes in the field of elementary education of Romany pupils and an inspiration for those, who participate in any way, in designing educational materials for Romany pupils.
