Summary
Head teaching staff have basically clear ideas about the newly hired teachers. They primarily
respect the legislative requirements for the qualification of teaching staff. In respect to the next
steps of accepting they primarily take into account the professional preparedness and potential,
which in most cases is tested within the model teaching. There rigorously analyse the presented
performances, carry out analyses and follow-up evaluation. As part of these discussions, they
assess verbal and non-verbal expressions of the candidates.
Besides
professional dispositions, are also personality and communication
skills are also
important elements, as well as responsibility, teamwork and flexibility. There have often been
mentioned words such as enthusiasm, empathy and teamwork.
As expressed in one of the interviews, teaching is not a profession like any other. A good
teacher has to live their work, has to love it with everything that belongs to it. Without it they
cannot be a good teacher.
