Abstract

El presente estudio analiza los incentivos y factores institucionales que determinan la composición del magisterio y que influyen en su desempeño profesional. Se analizan los perfiles típicos (socioeconómicos, educativos y motivacionales) de los que estudian para ser maestros y de quienes ejercen dicha profesión. Asimismo, se documenta de manera detallada los incentivos y la estructura en general de la carrera docente en comparación con los de otros profesionales, y se realiza una comparación de la carrera docente y de las características de los maestros del sector público y del sector privado. Finalmente se realiza una primera estimación que aproxime el efecto que tienen algunas características contractuales sobre la propia percepción que tienen los maestros sobre su desempeño. El documento comprende seis capítulos. El primero incluye una breve descripción de la realidad de la escuela primaria. El segundo capítulo caracteriza la carrera docente analizando la oferta de formación docente y el perfil de quienes estudian para ser maestros. El capítulo tercero analiza los principales deberes y derechos del profesorado, así como las reglas que rigen para el ascenso de los profesores, sea en el ámbito público o el privado. El cuarto capítulo trata sobre las remuneraciones docentes y su estructura. En el capítulo cinco se presenta el perfil de los maestros en actividad. El capítulo seis analiza el desempeño de los maestros y el impacto que sobre el mismo tienen el régimen contractual y el tipo de institución. Finalmente se presentan un resumen y las conclusiones.
