In addition, the present thesis is engaged in the use of logopaedic aids in pre-school education and discusses the funding of these aids. The theoretical part provides a brief description of the pre-school age. This part also depicts the most common logopaedic disorders and characterizes regular and logopaedic kindergarten grades. A considerable portion of the theoretical part is concerned with logopaedic prevention in the kindergarten. Last but not least, logopaedic aids and options of funding of these aids are investigated.

One questionnaire was intended for teachers in regular and logopaedic kindergarten schools and the other was submitted to headmistresses, head teachers or coordinators for educating children with special educational needs. The objective of the research was to determine whether the level of logopaedic prevention in logopaedic kindergarten grades is higher than that in regular kindergarten grades. The other objective was to discover whether the funding of logopaedic aids is sufficient.
