“…The general situation on the labour market, particularly unemployment risks, shapes the situation of every profession, including teachers. Both professionally active teachers and prospective ones react very sensitively to fluctuations in the unemployment rate (Neugebauer, 2015;Nagler et al, 2015). The higher the unemployment rate, the more interested jobseekers are to choose safe public sector jobs and stability of employment over higher remuneration (Nagler et al, 2015).…”

Economic, social and cultural changes generate new challenges on the labour market for teachers in every country. Poland has recently witnessed significant changes in factors that were identified in literature as crucial to the situation of teachers on the labour market, such as systemic reforms, demographic trends, the overall situation on the labour market and occupational prestige. The scale and impact of some of these factors can be precisely measured and statistically accounted for, yet there are others that remain somehow hidden. The objective of the article is to present and analyse the current situation of geography teachers in Poland, taking into account the impact of both overt and covert factors. The paper is based on an analysis of primary and secondary data. Primary data were collected during our own research on online job advertisements and revolved around information on the real demand for geography teachers. Secondary data were official reports and statistics related to the social and professional standing of teachers in Poland. The analysis proves that in the last ten years the population of teachers has aged and experienced a drop in real wages. There has also been an increase in staff turnover and patchwork careers. Moreover, we have observed that it is highly unlikely to secure a full-time position as a geography teacher and that there have been huge fluctuations in the prestige of geography as a school subject. The identified changes can result in a shortage of qualified geography teachers in the short term, particularly in cities

“…Individuelle Ziele und Interessen, die subjektive Einschätzung eigener Fähigkeiten, berufsrelevante Vorerfahrungen sowie Anforderungen, Kosten und Arbeitsplatzangebot sind für die Berufswahl relevant (Richardson & Watt, 2006). Aus Sicht der Theorie zum Berufswahlverhalten von Holland (1997) kann die berufliche Entscheidung somit als Ergebnis von Bewertungsprozessen auf Basis einer möglichst optimalen Passung zwischen personalen Eigenschaften, Wünschen und antizipierten beruflichen Anforderungen (Watt & Richardson, 2007), sowie Anstellungsbedingungen und dem Arbeitsmarkt (Neugebauer, 2015) beschrieben werden.…”

“…Damit werden unter anderem Anstellungsbedingungen (z.B. Arbeitszeitgestaltung) und finanzielle Anreize (Gehalt), sowie anstellungsrechtliche Merkmale (Arbeitsplatzsicherheit) thematisiert (Vernooij & Beucker, 2007), die länderspezifisch und vom Arbeitsmarkt mitbedingt (Neugebauer, 2015) variieren und damit nationale Forschungsbefunde unterschiedlich rahmen. In Befunden aus Industrieländern besteht Konsens darüber, dass extrinsische Motive für die Berufswahl von Bedeutung (Kiel, Geider & Jünger, 2004), in ihrer Ausprägung intrinsischen jedoch untergeordnet sind (Herzog et al, 2007;Hobson et al, 2004;Keller-Schneider, 2011a;Pohlmann & Möller, 2010;Richardson & Watt, 2006;Syring, Weiß, Keller-Schneider, Hellsten & Kiel, 2017;Weiß et al, 2009).…”

Die vorliegende Studie hat zum Ziel, Lehramtsstudierende zweier Länder (Deutschland, Bayern und der Schweiz, Kanton Zürich) sowie zweier Schulstufen (Primar- und Sekundarstufe I) auf ihre Berufswahlmotive hin zu vergleichen. Mit Hilfe von Faktorenanalysen wurde eine Faktorenstruktur entwickelt, die für varianz-analytische Vergleiche zwischen den untersuchten Gruppen sowie zwischen den clusteranalytisch gebildeten Typen genutzt wird. Intrinsische Motive, insbesondere die Arbeit mit Kindern und Jugendlichen, werden von den Lehramtsstudierenden als wichtiger angesehen als extrinsische Motive. In den Ausprägungen zeigen sich jedoch Unterschiede zwischen den untersuchten Gruppen. In den über die Berufswahlmotive clusteranalytisch identifizierten Typen schlagen sich länder- und schulstufenspezifische Faktoren nieder. Insbesondere in den extrinsischen und fehlenden Motiven zeigen sich Ländereffekte. Die Ergebnisse der Studie verweisen auf die Wichtigkeit, Erkenntnisse bezüglich der Motive von Lehramtsstudierenden nicht nur auf der individuellen Ebene, sondern auch in Hinblick auf spezifische Kontextbedingungen zu interpretieren.

“…The reason for such lack of teachers and demand for new teachers was still unclear, but teacher profession has become popular among job seekers since it offers a good prospect. Neugebauer (2014) explained that when the risk of unemployment was still high, the profession as a teacher did not offer many opportunities, especially for people with extrinsic motivations. Such a fact has changed significantly in the last few years since teaching profession has become favorable.…”

This research aimed to describe and explore the regrouping of schools within one complex and teacher redistribution to attain equitable management and distribution of teachers. The research located in Ngawi Regency, East Java. The data collection was performed through in-depth interview, observation, and documentation. The data analysis was done qualitatively. The results of research pointed out that the regrouping of schools within one complex, and teacher redistribution in elementary schools were done because there was inefficiency in elementary school management. The teacher-student ratio was sufficient, but there were demands for new teachers every year. There was also insufficient smallscale school management, and there were subject teachers who had less teaching hours in junior-high-school level, while there were teachers who had excessive teaching hours in other educational units. Such issues are due to the inadequate management of teacher distribution.
