In the light of empirical studies, in Poland, there appear three main tendencies in juvenile delinquency, which clearly correlate with the tendencies generally observed over the last decade on a global scale. A systematic and significant quantitative increase in general crime range of all kinds can be observed. The age limit of juvenile delinquents has lowered (there has been a considerable increase in the number of crimes committed by delinquents under the age of thirteen). Serious criminal offences are more frequently committed by a few-year-old children. Finally, a sudden rise in violent crimes based on aggression aimed both at peers as well as at adults has been noted. The diagnostic-exploratory studies undertaken by the author come down to the following question: to what extent, does the differentiation of juvenile detention centres into closed, semi-open and open institutions correspond to the differentiation of young people in these centres in relation to different variables of the school environment they come from? The study focuses on the young people under resocialization and therapy. The presented empirical research analyses the school environment of the socially maladjusted young people. The various forms of pathological behaviour in the school environment have been analysed. The studies show a complexity of various school factors affecting juvenile delinquency. Considering the variables of the school environment, which to a various extent and in a diverse way differentiate the research respondents. It is necessary to remember about a strong influence of family, peer, cultural and world-view factors, which seriously affect young people, which has been confirmed by numerous comparative studies. In the light of the conducted studies, it is necessary to emphasise that none of the forms of social pathology involving juveniles can be left to itself.
