ŠÍMOVÁ, Aneta
The thesis "The Labour Market and the Issue of Employment of Special Educational Needs Teachers" deals with the question of what criteria special educational needs teachers have to meet, if they want to be qualified workers in the field. The thesis is divided into a theoretical and empirical part. The theoretical part is divided into three chapters. The first chapter explains the subject and aim of special needs education, its legislation, and the employment of special educational needs teachers. The second chapter focuses on the competencies of special educational needs teachers and on further development of these competencies. The last, third chapter deals with supervision as important part of occupational burnout prevention. The empirical part describes the chosen goals and the survey questions. It also contains a description of the employed survey method, which was semi-structured interviews. The main goals of this thesis were to establish the specialization of special educational needs teachers in the real-life work environment, to map out their attitude towards self-education in their profession, and to map out the workplace requirements from the management towards special educational needs teachers. The probands included in this survey were both special educational needs teachers and their supervisors in the Strakonice region. We found out which requirements special educational needs teachers have to meet, ranging from personality traits to education. We encountered some concurrence as well as differences among the probands in their opinions on the employment of recent graduates and on the possibilities of developing one's skills, self-reflection, and self-knowledge. The emphasis is on the importance of various skills and abilities that special educational needs teachers must possess.
