Summary/Abstract: In our region (Ciuc Basin, Harghita County), the mass school enrolment of Roma pupils has brought many challenges for schools and teachers. For students from different cultural/social backgrounds, the controlled world of school is quite unfamiliar. In the absence of institutionalised solutions and procedures, teachers try to bring the two worlds closer together. In my paper I investigate the practice of informal solutions used by teachers in Roma-majority schools and classes. For many of them, informality is an instrument to cope with situation they have no control.
