Abstract

The time that we live in imposes specific requirements to the work of the school as institution, due to the complexity and dynamics of the society nowadays. Today’s modern school system requires continuous improvement of the teachers in terms of teaching methodology, and in this regard numerous trainings are being conducted. Providing professional support to the teachers becomes an essential need, taking into consideration that the teachers’ performance is the most important factor for increasing student outcomes in the learning process. Professional competencies of teachers are the basis of their professional and educational work. In that line, monitoring/observation of the teachers during realization of the lessons should be planned, as part of the overall planning for teachers’ professional development. The report of the monitoring should present how successfully the teaching process is carried out. For this purpose, a specific program is compiled within the Annual program of the schools, according to which the principal, the school pedagogist and psychologist perform direct observation of the lessons and provide their pedagogical-advisory recommendations to the teachers. These recommendations are intended to help the teacher to increase the quality of teaching. This paper will provide an overview of the manner and quality of planning and implementation of monitoring in primary schools in the Republic of North Macedonia. In this respect, a research will be conducted in a total of 12 primary schools, among which: three schools in Skopje, three in Tetovo, three in Gostivar and three in Kicevo. For the realization of this research we will use the questionnaire as a measuring instrument, as the most efficient way for collecting the necessary information. A total of 12 principals, 12 pedagogists, 12 psychologists and 120 teachers (10 from each school) will be included in the survey. The data will be processed with the SPSS statistical program.
