Abstract

The author has analyzed the issue of professional readiness of students of psycho-pedagogical specialties to work with children. It was emphasized the importance of qualitative training of higher education graduates to productive interaction with children in pre-school, general, special and inclusive educational institutions. The results of the survey of students about their emotional attitude to children with typical development and children with special educational needs, as well as on the personal competences of professional interaction with children, are presented and interpreted. It is found that future specialists are positive about children, but they lack experience of interaction with children with peculiarities of psychophysical development. Future specialists are clearly aware of the basic principles of successful interaction with children and determine the professional characteristics of a specialist who will facilitate contact with the child through interest and affinity, will provide productive interaction with her through knowledge and experience, will form a trusting relationship with the child through the ability of a specialist to listen, hear, and understand.

They are self-critical and indicate the need for them to develop the following professional qualities, namely experience and knowledge, self-confidence, emotional stability and patience, a certain severity, as the ability to set limits and rules for working with children. The priority directions of training of competitive specialists of psychological and pedagogical sphere are determined.
 
Key words: children with special educational needs;  emotional attitude to children;  inclusive education;  professional competences;  professionally important qualities;  specialists in the psychological and pedagogical sphere.
