The survey examined teachers' attitudes motivated by Skaalvik's research. Factor analysis yielded very similar results. Questions were added about the workload of teachers in online teaching caused by the COVOD-19 pandemic, about the pressure on teacher independence by principals and parents, and about the social status of teachers. The paper emphasizes the analysis of results related to 504 teachers of informatics, technology education and related vocational subjects. Differences in attitudes were shown with regard to gender, years of service, and the level of school in which they are employed, the type of studies they completed and the promotion of teachers. Qualitative analysis of teachers 'comments revealed the main sources of dissatisfaction from the teachers' perspective, as well as support for such research and hope that the results will change the Ministry's attitude towards teachers.
