Razrednik ima pomembno vlogo pri šolanju vsakega učenca. Je vez med učenci, starši in učitelji, učitelj pa z razredništvom prav tako pridobi pomembne in zahtevne naloge in vloge. V okviru magistrskega dela sem želela raziskati več področij razredništva, in sicer lastnosti dobrega razrednika, naloge, ki jih opravlja, tematike razrednih ur, sodelovanje s starši, zanimal me je tudi pogled razrednika na njihovo vlogo. V ta namen sem oblikovala vprašalnike, ki jih je izpolnilo 310 učencev predmetne stopnje, 89 staršev in 88 razrednikov. Rezultati so pokazali, da se razredniki zavedajo, katere so tiste lastnosti, ki jih morajo imeti za kakovostno opravljanje svojega dela. Učenci menijo, da sta pri razrednikih najbolj izraženi lastnosti natančnost in pravičnost, razredniki pri sebi zaznavajo najbolj izraženi pravičnost in zaupnost, staršem sta najpomembnejši lastnosti dobrega razrednika natančnost in to, da razrednik pri svojem delu uživa. Kot najmanj izraženi lastnosti sta se pokazali ustvarjalnost in strokovnost. Razredniki so najučinkovitejši pri opravljanju administrativnih, najmanj pa pri opravljanju pedagoških nalog. Učenci si želijo več razrednih ur, kot jih imajo sedaj, kot najpomembnejše tematike za obravnavo so se – pri vseh treh skupinah – pokazali medosebni odnosi, medvrstniško nasilje ter pregled ocen oz. učna problematika. Starši in razredniki menijo, da so tri najpomembnejše in najpogostejše oblike sodelovanja med njimi govorilne ure, roditeljski sestanki in pisno obveščanje. Razredniki svoje delo ocenjujejo kot zahtevno, a se hkrati zavedajo, da so nepogrešljiv člen v šoli. Prav tako poročajo, da ne pridobijo dovolj znanja v okviru študija. Rezultati magistrskega dela so lahko v pomoč tako razrednikom kot tudi svetovalnim delavcem, ki z njimi sodelujejo oz. jim želijo pri delu pomagati. Psihologi imamo namreč kot svetovalni delavci pomembno vlogo v odnosu do dela učitelja. Lahko jih opolnomočimo za delo z učenci in starši hkrati je učitelj dober vir informacij o učencu za svetovalnega delavca. Class teacher plays an important role in the education of each student. By being given the role of a class teacher, one receives important and demanding tasks and roles. Class teachers are the link between students, parents and teachers. As part of my master's thesis, I wanted to research several areas of a class teacher’s work, namely the qualities of a good class teacher, the tasks he or she performs, the topics of class meetings, and the cooperation with parents. I was also interested in class teachers’ view of their role. For this purpose, I designed questionnaires, which were filled out by 310 students from sixth to ninth class, 89 parents and 88 class teachers. The results showed that the class teachers are aware of the qualities they must have to perform their work well. Students believe that thoroughness and fairness are the most prominent qualities of class teachers, the qualities that class teachers themselves perceive as the most pronounced are fairness and confidentiality, and the most important qualities of a good class teacher for parents are thoroughness and the fact that the class teacher enjoys his or her work. The least expressed qualities were creativity and professionalism. Class teachers are most effective in performing administrative tasks, and least effective in performing pedagogical tasks. Students want more class meetings than they have now. Most important themes for class meetings are interpersonal relations, peer violence and review of grades or learning problems. Parents and class teachers believe that the three most important and most common forms of cooperation between them are speaking hours, parent meetings and written notifications. Class teachers assess their work as demanding, but at the same time they are aware that they are an indispensable part of the school. They also report that they do not acquire enough knowledge during their studies. The results of the master's thesis can be of help to both classroom teachers and counsellors who work with them or want to help them with their work. As counsellors, psychologists play an important role in relation to the class teachers and their work. They can empower them for their work with students and parents, and at the same time, the teacher can be a good source of information about an individual student for the counsellor.
