Summary/Abstract: Beside the family, school is the environment which affects a child for many years and has a significant impact on the process of his development, education, upbringing and socialization. At the moment of starting the educational process, a child must adapt to a new situation and face a new social role – as a pupil. Performing this role may be problematic for every child, but students with special educational needs may experience special difficulties in this area. One of the elements of the school situation is the emotional and social relations of students with their peers from the school class. Th e main aim of this article to is to present the results of the author's research on functioning of pupils with special educational needs (SEN) from grades 1-3 of a primary school as a peer and comparison of the results with the findings of other Polish and Czech scholars.
