Teacher`s Perception of The Educational Relationship on The Relation Teacher - Pupil in a School

Contemporary pedagogy, when thinking about education, puts an emphasis on the wholesome growth and development of man. The educational relationship supposes a personal relationship between the educator and student. A teacher in a contemporary school is a motivator, facilitator, moderator, coordinator, mediator, mentor…, an educator in the widest sense of the word. The teacher, with their personality and behaviour, is involved in creating an atmosphere in school and developing a school culture which is impossible to define and perceive as one-dimensional. Positive school culture is a prerequisite for a quality teaching process and research that contributes to understanding this phenomenon is scientifically justified and practically applicable. Interpersonal action, as a mutually constructive relationship, demands constant deliberation and challenge. The paper deals with the educational relationship between the teacher and pupil from the teacher’s perspective. The objective of the research was to determine teacher’s perception of the educational relationship and communication with pupils in school and educational process. Problem of the research has been aimed towards analysis of the teacher’s perception of the teacher-pupil relationship and comparisons of mutual views of communication problems and teacher-pupil relations with the intention of improving the quality of their mutual relationship, therefore the educational process itself. 78 high schools have participated in the research. The results have indicated the elements that teachers consider important for creating positive rapport with pupils, as well as those they consider to be obstacles in creating such rapport and also their assessment of how the pupils see them, or which feelings the teachers excite in them. Given results have been compared to pupil’s answers, which were the result of a parallel research. An atmosphere should be developed in schools, which makes them a seminal and harmonized place for studying and adopting values and attitudes. The results of the conducted research and deliberations connected to them are contributing to the understanding of mutual relationships between teachers and pupils as one of the factors for creating school’s identity and culture.
