Abstract: In specialist literature, school performance of the child is presented in different ways and aspects. It should be emphasised that the quality of school performance is strongly affected by intra-family socialisation processes. Interactions between family, school and particular elements of external social world are mutual. Therefore, the article focuses on family and school influences, including opposite influences expressed in different social roles (performed by secondary school students: 201 respondents): the role of student, the role of friend and the role of school community member. The empirical part of the article discusses school performance and interactions of the child brought up in multi-child family.

 

Key words: the role of student, the role of friend, the role of school community member, socialisation, family, school
