  Extracurricular activities have a significant role in increasing the disadvantaged Roma children’s school performance and compensate their socialization disadvantages. In the recent years, the study hall program becomes widely known in Hungary. Based on the literature and previous researches the study examines the needs, milestones, goals and target groups of the study hall program. This paper also demonstrates the economic and social conditions of the Integration Program, which has been in operation for 20 years, and supports effectively the development of social competences of disadvantaged social groups.

  The study presents the attitudes and behaviours of pedagogues, based on interviews with
  teachers working with Roma children which constitute the quotidian educational practice. In
  absence of institutional programs, infrastructural and personal conditions, the teachers need
  to find solutions for the given difficulties. They become the key figures of the integration process
  and hence their attitudes and approaches are determining from the point of view of Roma
  children’s school efficiency. The target audience of the research are composed by pedagogues,
  who teach in elementary schools in the Csiki Basin in Harghita county, where the rate of Roma
  learners exceeds 25 percents. Signalling the main directions of the national policy and the
  presentation of literature examining the Hungarian-Roma relationship in Szeklerland offer a
  broader framework for the interpretation of the subject.
