In addition to the supporting elementary school the secondary grammar school provides excellent opportunities in the fields of teaching foreign languages, mathematics and sports. The faculty provides its students with knowledge and skills for the whole teaching cycle ranging from the first class of primary school to high school graduation. Since 2008 our sports school has been operating as a basis for national recruitment especially in short track skating, basketball and wrestling and also serves as a basis for school based sport activities as well as competitions.
HISTORIC REVIEW OF TRAININGS
Teacher training has been a tradition at the Faculty since 1917. The legal predecessor institute practised intermediate level training until 1959, at an advanced level between 1959 and 1975, and the title of ‘teacher training college' was awarded to the school in 1975.
By the end of the 1980s, due to alternative pedagogic intentions, the School began a 4 year value-transferring and skill-developing teacher training program with dual specializations of teacher-librarian, teacher-cultural organizer, and then teacher-social educator. After a successful pilot phase, they started to operate as individual majors in the fields of:
All of these are the undying merits of the professional community of the Faculty of that time.
NATIONAL AND REGIONAL DEMAND FOR GRADUATES
Demand for teachers varies according to demographic changes. Due to the comprehensiveness of the Faculty, its graduates have made many accomplishments. Completing their qualification with special in-service field training they can easily succeed in finding jobs as successful experts in the different areas of education, public administration, in child welfare and social institutes as well as in the fields of informatics and culture. This sphere of employment is further reinforced by the three other fields of training, which are the social acceptance of andragogy, social welfare and informatics. The Faculty can cater to the needs of the newly formed regional associations by providing them well-trained experts who are familiar with the challenges they face. We operate educational and reactivation programs answering the needs of our region including reactivating training programs that can help to get different ethnic groups involved in higher education. The special needs of our region originate from the unique geographic situation of the Faculty being attached to the capital, Pest, Jász-Nagykún, Heves and Nógrád counties through Szent István University. In the fields of training and developing human resources our academic programs serve the credo of Szent István University to fulfil its aims.
MAIN AREAS OF RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT
The scientific work of students is coordinated by the Scientific Committee of the School. Due to the collaboration of the departments involved in the multi-faceted training and the various scientific fields the main topics include:
Pedagogy has more important role than the others, since the working efforts are supported by modern and complex approaches of pedagogy, psychology, sociology, social-pedagogy at the Faculty and well-organized practical exercises, elementary practice schools and teacher / mentors. The topics concerning the social integration of the Faculty and the examination of the cultural aspects of the region appear in PhD dissertations by the members of the departments, while the physical condition of the students and the SWOT analyses of elementary schools are being carried out simultaneously. The Virtual Regional Post-graduation Centre cooperates with seventeen Sub-regional Associations of Municipalities and education-related companies, institutions, sports associations and civil organizations.
