“Comprehensive Evaluation” as one of the tools for assessing teachers in secondary technical schools in socialist Czechoslovakia

Original language description

This study explores the system of teacher evaluation in secondary technical schools in socialist Czechoslovakia, focusing on the practice known as &quot;Comprehensive Evaluation&quot; (Komplexní hodnocení). Drawing on oral history interviews with former teachers and analysis of personnel documents of the period, the article reconstructs the role of political ideology in teacher assessments during the normalization period (1969-1989). The findings demonstrate that evaluations were not primarily concerned with pedagogical performance but were deeply embedded in the ideological objectives of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia. Teachers were assessed according to their political loyalty, participation in socialist organizations, and compliance with ideological expectations, in addition to their teaching effectiveness.
