Abstract

In this study, I seek to examine the personal factors /students/ of the Nyíregyházi State Elementary Folk School Teacher Profile between 1914 and 1961. At the beginning of the study, I examine the development of teacher training and organizational changes in teacher training. I then present the students’ analysis to the reader. When examining students, I present the number of enrolled and qualified students. In different periods, the ministry tried to influence the number of students per class due to overtraining. I will reveal the institute’s actions in this regard. The proportion and number of dropouts will be analyzed. In the study, I try to reveal the reasons for trainees dropping out and teachers’ struggles to retain them. After that, I analyze the religious distribution of students between 1914 and 1948. In the study, I discuss the social origin of students, examining the distribution of parents according to occupation. In the period between 1914 and 1948, I examine the parent society of the school’s location, and map the contours of the influential parent groups. After that, I present the distribution of the students according to their place of residence and the school’s enrollment area. I cover the distribution according to mother tongue and the students’ previous studies. At the end of the thesis, I examine the admission procedure of the students at the institute.
