Abstract
The specific conditions of life and work in 2020 faced pedagogues with new demands, which is why, in this paper, the emphasis is placed on determining their role in primary and secondary schools during the COVID-19 pandemic. A qualitative study was conducted on a sample of ten professional pedagogic associates employed in primary and secondary schools throughout the Republic of Croatia. The research results showed that the role of pedagogues during the pandemic was primarily organizational and coordinating. Pedagogues played an essential role in providing emotional support and motivating students and teachers. Another form of teaching required the adoption of new ways of communication, in which the daily cooperation of pedagogues with other participants in the educational process is essential for successful teaching.
