摘要：The paper presents the results of the study into the opinions that learners, teachers, and school management have about the indicators of contemporary teacher competences. The study included 876 participants, lower/higher grade teachers, primary school management boards and learners. The adults considered establishing a nice relationship between teachers and learners/other school employees as the most important measurable indicator. The learners ranked teacher competences focused on learner needs very high (the first, second, and third important). Factor analysis was used for classifying 23 indicators of contemporary teacher competences into three groups, taking into account evaluations by both learners and adults. Statistically significant differences were found in their opinions. The results of the study have their application value because they indicate the recommendation of permanent expansion with regard to professional competences due to the new roles of teachers in contemporary teaching.
