Professional freedom does not mean that the teacher can do whatever he or she likes, but that the teacher, who knows the students, is the person best equipped to decide which methods to use in order to create an optimal learning situation. Teachers' working conditions are also closely related to their students' learning conditions. A school environment allowing teachers to do a good job will automatically improve the learning conditions for the students. Some reviews of the factors affecting the academic achievement of school children conclude that the influence of issues such as the education of the teacher is of great importance. The significance of improving teacher education and the importance of seeing that all teachers have an appropriate qualification and training cannot be overemphasised.
Teaching is a lifelong commitment.
Human knowledge continually expands and environments are constantly evolving. Quality in-service training is a fundamental right. Continuous professional development is of crucial importance in maintaining the level of teachers' education and retaining them in the profession. To improve the quality of education, teachers must be supported in their efforts to develop themselves professionally. Pedagogical research must be strengthened as an instrument to improve the quality of education, and the results of such research should be communicated to teachers in a more effective manner.
