DETERMINING THE DEGREE OF SATISFACTION WITH THE WORKING CONDITIONS OF PRIMARY SCHOOL TEACHERS

Abstract

The profession of a teacher today continues to be one of the most massive varieties of mental labor, including for the professional activity of a primary school teacher. Specific features that distinguish the activity of a primary school teacher from the activity of a subject teacher of a secondary or high school are, firstly, teaching them various disciplines of mathematical, humanitarian, natural science, artistic and aesthetic cycles, and secondly, the referential nature of his role for younger students and, thirdly, the close interaction of the primary school teacher with the parents of the students. At the same time, the researchers note that the prestige of the teaching profession is declining. This largely depends on working conditions, wages, society's attitude to the teacher. All this leads to the departure of qualified specialists from the education system, the destruction of family pedagogical dynasties, a sharp aging of the teaching staff, and the absence of male teachers in the school. The search for ways to increase the efficiency of the work of educators while maintaining their health to the maximum requires a sufficient amount of scientific information that reveals the essence, content of the profession and the conditions in which their daily work is carried out.
