Abstract [en]
This study is about relocated students in the school. Research in this area is limited and the aim is to illuminate the area by listening to different people's voices that have been close to or involved in relocations. The study was made of a qualitative method and the collection of data was through interviews. A total of eight people were included in the study. The selected municipality is located in Sweden. The sample was head teachers, counselors, special educators, social services, relocated student and parent of a relocated student. In the results and analysis the weight were placed on the interviewees votes. Theoretical starting points were selected based on the results of the interviews. The theories used were Bachtin's theory regarding voices, Goffman's theory of stigma, group process and then also Schutz FIRO-model that is about the group's various phases, and Dewey's theory of school. Results from the study showed that relocating because of bullying was rare. An important factor in a successful relocation is the pupil's participation and that the class must be prepared for a new member into the group. Relocation is seen as a last resort and that all other resources should be exhausted before a decision about relocation becomes an option.
