This bachelor thesis deals with the issue of so-called drop-out of teachers from schools or the early departure of teachers from their profession. It focuses specifically on novice teachers, which means teachers in the early years of their careers.

The thesis focuses on former elementary and secondary school teachers in the Czech Republic. The primary goal of the thesis is to identify and understand the reasons for the drop-out of novice teachers. In addition, the thesis also deals with the course of the teacher's education and practice and the possibilities of preventing the early departure of novice teachers.
