School is an important element in the reality of a young human. In its space a student spends a large part of his daily life. The school, aware of its importance, is trying to best fulfill this tasks. Particular role is played in the case of a student with a disability, whose functioning is inherently inhibited. Students with intellectual disabilities are based in a very bad position, what is shown in the presented diagnosis. The diagnosis was carried out in the area of qualitative research the individual case method using an interview technique was applied. The principles of relational diagnosis were referred to. 13-years old Mateusz, a student of fourth grade of elementary integration school, with intellectual disability at light level was interviewed. The research material was enriched with interviews with the boy's mother and his tutor, a Maths teacher. The students areas of functioning at the school were analyzed in basics: task-based functioning, relations with adults and colleagues and his self image. The diagnosis shows unfavorable situation of the boy at school. There is disorder in all areas his functioning (according relations between the subject and the adults at the school are relatively most favorable). The boy cannot cope with task situations as a student and friend. Although he attends the integration class he does not feel a full member, his colleague relationships are poor and often disorderly. He does not like to go to school, he cannot cope with study, he has low self-esteem. The causes of this state should be seen in intellectual disability and unfortunately in school environment deficiencies. In order to improve the situation, changes are necessary both in the education of students with disabilities, assistance provided to them, as well as in educational support for the social integration of students with disabilities. Without appropriate actions, these students are doomed to school failure, to the threat of social exclusion.
