It was Teachers’ Day recently, so a good time to remember the high public regard the profession has enjoyed for so long. CBOS has been including this subject in its surveys for twenty-five years. An overwhelming majority of Polish people say they have great respect for teachers and in recent years the prestige of the profession has risen even higher. A year ago – the last time CBOS asked about this – over three quarters of respondents expressed great esteem for teachers; it was the best result for this profession since CBOS research began.
