The Role of Parents and Teachers in the Formation of Career Guidance of Students in Pedagogical Professions

<p style="text-align: justify;">The research is aimed at studying the role of parents and teachers in the formation of students’ career guidance for teaching professions. An empirical study was conducted with students of psychological and pedagogical classes (n = 45), their parents (n = 55) and teachers (n = 37). As a result, it was revealed: students as a whole are not focused on obtaining the teaching profession, they got into the profile class because of the desire of parents and the predominance of humanitarian subjects; parents, despite their interest, are directive in the professional choice of children; teachers demonstrate a greater focus on communication, which does not fully contribute to the formation of students’ orientation towards the teaching profession. The formative experiment is aimed at developing students’ awareness in choosing a profession and developing constructive support for children by teachers and parents through a correctional and developmental program. At the end of the study, students’ interest in the teaching profession increased, parents’ indicators of scales related to hyperprotection decreased, teachers’ focus on the subject came out on top.</p>
