The paper presents an analysis of the professional practice of students at undergraduate academic studies in pedagogy. The main goal of the research is to examine how students experienced professional practice in the subject School Pedagogy. The research was conducted using a qualitative research method, and the basic research instrument is a questionnaire with open-ended questions. The following research tasks were set in the research: (1) to determine students’ expectations from professional practice; (2) to identify the positive and negative sides of the realized professional practice; (3) to determine the problems that arise in the process of organization of professional practice; (4) to examine the opinion of students about assignments for professional practice in the subject School Pedagogy; (5) to collect student proposals on possible means of improvement of the professional practice. The results of the research indicate that the students had a very positive experience of professional practice in the subject School Pedagogy. Almost all of the surveyed students believe that professional practice met their expectations and that it has many positive aspects. The analysis showed that the negative aspects of professional practice are relate to the short duration of practice, both in this subject and in general. The students experienced the tasks for professional practice from the subject School Pedagogy as appropriate, and some described them as interesting and creative. In accordance with this, proposals for improving professional practice are to the greatest extent oriented towards the time frame of professional practice, in terms of increasing the time and changing the date of realization of professional practice.
