Abstract

The article presents the survey results about the attitudes of Bulgarian teachers to multilingualism. The sample covers 249 teachers from schools with a concentration of pupils from socially disadvantaged Roma families. Responses are analyzed using percentage frequencies and a multilevel General linear model. Expectations of differences in the attitudes of teachers with different degrees of education - namely, bachelor’s and master’s degree - were not justified.
