Sammanfattning: Title: From preschool to preschool in school – Expectations between parents, teachers and children Author: Maria Rask Gradin Mentor: Niclas Järvklo Term: Spring 2012   Abstract The aim of this study is to draw attention to the expectations between parents, children and teachers at preschools and teachers in the preschool in the school at the transition to preschool in the school. I also want to know how the mission is defined, and how it is met. Two preschools and two preschool in the school are the focus of my investigation. I interviewed teachers and parents, sent surveys to parents, observed children playing school and interviewed children about their thoughts and expectations for the preschool in the school there. The survey results show that all parties, except perhaps the children who did not express an opinion thereon, wants better cooperation between the preschool and school. All teachers expect children to be independent when they start preschool in school. The various examination subjects expectations were in fairly good agreement with each other. When the cooperation is not working desirable between preschool and preschool in the school, it is difficult to convey everyone's expectations and thus difficult to meet them, therefore, greater cooperation is desirable. In summary, the preschools and preschools in the schools in this study needs to develop greater cooperation to make it easier for the children in the transition between the preschool and the school.
