Sažetak
Modern approach to education emphasize the importance of the roles assigned to the holders of educational process in inclusive preschools and elementary schools. When we talk about an integrated approach to children with disabilities and their peers, we often emphasize the importance of professional competence of preschool teachers, primary school teachers and subject teachers. The accent on professional competencies of educational employees is certainly justified because of their connection with encouraging the development of competencies of the children who they teach. Beside professional competencies, there is also discussion about job satisfaction and work efficiency of educational employees. The aim of this study was to gain insight into self- assessment level of professional competencies and to determine the level of job satisfaction at teachers in inclusive preschools, and inclusive primary schools. Also, besides the above mentioned, the aim was to determine is there a connection between the level of professional competencies of teachers, and the level of satisfaction with their work. The study was conducted on a smaller sample of respondents. To collect data we used modified version of the Teacher 'The sense of efficacy scale (Tschannen- Moran, Woolfolk Hoy, 2001) and modified version of Teacher Efficacy Scale (Woolfolk, Hoy, 1990). Also, for purposes of this research we made scale for the assessment of job satisfaction of teachers, primary school teachers and subject teachers and a questionnaire for collecting demographic data of respondents. Obtained data shows that the test groups do not have statistically significant difference between each other due to the level of job satisfaction as neither in the self-assessment level of professional competence. There was a positive correlation between the level of professional competence and the level of job satisfaction among the groups. No differences were found between respondents in the level of job satisfaction and the level of professional competence considering the size of the group of children they work with and the presenceof children with disabilities in groups they work in.
