At present, there are 246 students in our main school and 82 students in our branch school. There are students with special educational needs, such as students suffering from dyslexia and dysgraphia. Several students have been diagnosed with attention deficit disorder (ADHD and ADD). 
In addition, a number of Roma children and children from Bosnia and Herzegovina attend our school. The Roma children experience major difficulties in terms of the Croatian language and the school syllabus. The County provides free books for them. They are often faced with adjustment difficulties due to their specific way of living.

Many of the Roma parents are unemployed, which attributes to greater social disadvantages of their children.
Other national minorities in our region include Serbs, Muslims, Ukrainians, and Albanians
