Abstract
The main task was to explore attitudes and opinions considering pupil’s evaluation. The research was conducted on a sample of 220 biology and chemistry elementary and high school teachers in Croatia. A survey was constructed by closed, open questions and Likert scale. Teacher involved in research were those who graduated teacher education as well as those who finished science education and later where involved in course of psychological- pedagogical subjects. Purpose was to established teacher’s attitudes about quality of their education for pupil’s evaluation and assessment. Examinees think that during education they aren’t well prepared for evaluation and assessment. They are not satisfied with content and method of teaching (frontal work) during qualification. Course content didn’t fulfil their expectations and majority of examined teachers think that they are not well prepared for everyday teaching challenges. The results have shown that there is no significant difference in disappointment between teacher who graduated teacher education and those who later finished short course of psychological - pedagogical subjects.
