Summary/Abstract: The extended day programme is a form of educational work attended by enrolled students of the lower grades before and after regular school hours. The successful functioning of theextended day programme is the responsibility of the group leader/teacher, whose job satisfaction can significantly influence the quality of their work. This paper examines the attitudes of group leaders/teachers in extended day programme at public primary schools in the Sarajevo Canton. The aim of the research was to identify the advantages and challenges of working in the extended day programme, job satisfaction with working conditions and work itself, as well as the employees’ attitudes regarding their intention to either keep or change their current positions. Differences in attitudes were also analyzed based on age, professional qualifications, and work experience. The research results revealed a neutral stance among group leaders/teachers regarding job satisfaction, but also their increased desire for a job change, which is conditioned by working conditions. The paper provides insights that can be used to initiate improvements in working conditions, aiming at employee satisfaction, and consequently, student satisfaction.
