Abstract
- The aim of the article was to shed light on children's experiences and views of documentation in home-school relations. The study draws on qualitative interviews with 52 pupils in Year 6 in Sweden. The analyses reveal pupils' understanding of documents and documentation and how they form an important part of the communication between home and school. Furthermore, the analyses show that children see themselves positioned as objects and messengers between home and school, but also as subjects who resist and use documents and documentation in their own interests.
