Abstract: Inclusion of Roma minority into educational systems can be achieved through many mechanisms; one of them is the Roma teaching assistant. Roma teaching assistants are usually required to speak Romani and/or be of Roma origin. However, the availability of Roma with the necessary level of training to assist in educational process is limited, thus it is important that individuals that are eligible to work as Roma teaching assistants are motivated into professional development. The paper elaborates on Roma teaching assistants' professional position in different countries and evaluates the professional development of Roma teaching assistants in Slovenia.
