Pedagogical characteristics of the student. Approximate characteristics of primary school students
The characteristic for the student is a document that reflects the assessment of the psychological, social, communicative and other qualities of the student. A characteristic for a student may be required when transferring a student to a new educational institution or when enrolling in specialized circles and sections. Also, this document is often written for new teachers who want to familiarize themselves with the character of the students.
How to write a characteristic for a student
Since the student's characteristic does not belong to the category of official documents, it can be written in any form, according to the general recommendations of business letters. First, the name of the document is written on a sheet or form, followed by the main text, which should include the following information:
- student data (name, date of birth, class of study);
- academic performance, academic preference, degree of perseverance, favorite subjects;
- health status, physical fitness, whether the student attends sports sections or circles;
- hobbies and extracurricular interests (you can indicate in which circles, sections and studios the student is engaged);
- student's family, relationship in the family;
- the character of the student, the attitude in the class;
- the signature of the class teacher;
- date of writing the document.
If the characteristic is drawn up for the purpose of submission to other educational institutions, then in addition to the signature of the class teacher, the signature of the school director is also required.
The characteristics of the student can be drawn up both on the letterhead of the educational institution, and on an A4 sheet.

Pedagogical activity is closely related to documentation. To facilitate his work, the teacher should familiarize himself with the drawing up scheme and examples of one of the most important documents in his work - the characteristics of the student.
Why is a student's characterization compiled?
An individual approach to teaching and upbringing of the younger generation implies the study of the typological characteristics of a particular child and the creation of such conditions for his development, in which this process would take place more effectively. In the practice of the educational system, such a method of recording the individual traits of a child has been created as a student's characteristic.
This document allows the teacher himself to generalize knowledge about the growing person, to track the dynamics of his development, as well as to other people who will work with the child in the future, to receive a ready-made set of knowledge about him. A well-written description helps the person reading it to form an idea of what is happening, a portrait of the child and, on this basis, prioritize work with him. Therefore, the characterization of the student as one of the main documents is often required in such cases:
- when transferring to another educational institution;
- to continue your studies at the next stage of education;
- at the request of social services;
- to work with a child of law enforcement agencies;
- when passing the commission at the military registration and enlistment office;
- to organize help for the child, for example, at PMPK meetings.
Characterization plan
Researchers in the field of psychology and pedagogy analyzed the characteristics that are compiled in educational institutions. It was found that such a document differed in its approach to the study of the personality of the child. So, the teachers focused on the influence on the student, on his behavior in the school environment. And psychologists - on the individual-typological differences of the child. For example, for a teacher, the manifestations of discipline and diligence in the educational process are important, for a psychologist - the child's motives. Both approaches did not fully describe the personality of the student in the specific conditions of the educational system. Therefore, it was concluded that the characteristics of a student should be built according to a certain plan (algorithm) and include the following necessary data:
- general information about the child (what is the name, age, where he lives, period of study,;
- educational activities;
- behavior;
- social labor;
- communication;
- individual personality traits;
- family atmosphere and upbringing.
These items were included in the student profile map, which is completed by the teacher throughout the child's education. It not only gives a complete picture of the student's personality, but also helps in the future to draw up an objective characterization.
Student activities
The child's activities in an educational institution include several types that should be described in such a document. It:
- learning activities (academic performance, interest, love of reading, learning achievement);
- social activity (degree of expression, initiative, organizational inclinations, authority of the child's opinion, attitude to the role of the follower, desire to perform socially important work);
- communicative activity, communication (popularity in a team, the presence of comrades, sociability, the ability to speak in front of an audience, openness, responsiveness, focus on the opinions of others, relationships with teachers).
The student shows how the child is adapted to the educational environment. How he assimilates social experience, knows how to make independent decisions and draw up a plan of action.
Psychological and pedagogical characteristics of the student. What does it include?
The designated map-scheme includes, in fact, both the psychological and pedagogical parts. These include the following data:
- features of the child's behavior (discipline, stubbornness, purposefulness, conflict, the degree of aggressiveness, physical activity, the degree of assimilation of pedagogical influence or education);
- individual psychological characteristics (self-esteem, level of anxiety, poise, striving for success or ambition, what feelings causes others);
- family influence (emotional atmosphere in the family, closeness and trust of relations, the degree of control and interest of parents in the child's life, the independence of the student, the degree of cooperation between parents and teachers).
The psychological and pedagogical characteristics of a student may also include information about the child's propensity for deviant behavior. In this case, it is necessary to indicate which specific examples indicate this.
Sample document
Samples of characteristics for students can be compiled by educators as an illustrative example, which will further facilitate the work with documentation. The following is a similar sample.

Sample characterization of the graduate
In the days of the USSR, the recommendation of the guarantor was replaced by the usual characteristic. Here is a template that will help you save time on drawing up a high-quality document. It's one thing to get characteristics, it's another to provide. It was always necessary to come to the personnel officer with a description. Many have had to deal with a document as a characteristic. When the period came to choose a job, or luck fell out to take an important position. Now the characteristics have started to dignify again with letters of recommendation. More and more often, such a thing as a letter of recommendation crept into everyday life.
Types of characteristics
To make a description to a student (even if he left the school a long time ago) or to a recruit is the job of the class teacher, along with filling out the class journal, personal files and other reporting documentation. Many have difficulty in creating this particular business paper, since it, like any document, is drawn up according to the model and is strictly regulated by the rules of the official business style.
Here are the plans and samples of characteristics of various types:

Characteristics per student is an assessment of the psychological, social, personal traits of the student, his mental abilities, skills and abilities. It is designed in a free style, but there are still separate requirements that must be followed.
The characteristic is compiled for submission to another educational institution or for a new teacher in order to make the initial acquaintance with the student as comfortable as possible. The characteristic will help the teacher find an individual approach to the student, understand his interests, hobbies, the main directions of spiritual, scientific, social development. There is no single characteristic template. Usually it is written on a piece of A-4 paper, it can also be issued on the letterhead of the educational institution. The characteristic can be presented in three types: psychological, pedagogical, psychological and pedagogical. Above should indicate the name of the document (characteristic), and below all information that may be useful is indicated in a free order. Traditionally, this document sanctifies such information:- general data about the student (date of birth, full name, name of educational institution, class, city);
- academic performance, academic priorities (favorite subjects), features of intellectual development and perception of information;
- the student's hobbies, interests, hobbies (what circles or sections he attends, what success he has achieved);
- health status;
- the student's personal qualities, character, psychological development, volitional qualities, features of temperament;
- communication skills: relationship with other students, teachers (respects, indifferent, despises);
- the level of sociability (whether he takes part in the life of the class), claims, self-esteem;
- moral and ethical qualities;
- family composition (complete / incomplete), family relationships, family values, parental participation in the upbringing and education of the child.
Why is a student characterization compiled? It means describing the merits and demerits of someone or something. This article will consider the characteristics of a student of a school or other educational institution. Such a document is required if a student is transferred from one class to another, from a junior school to a senior, or when a student is transferred to another school. After leaving school, you may also need a characterization to enter another educational institution. In the military registration and enlistment offices, recruits are also often asked for a description from the place of study. And the most unpleasant thing is that it is demanded by the police, when registering a dysfunctional student or when instituting a criminal case.
In all these cases, the characteristic is almost the same as the resume when applying for a job, only it is written not by the student himself, but by his teacher. It indicates academic success, the degree of physical development, relationships with peer teachers, and much more.

10. Moral and ethical qualities reflect generally accepted concepts: sensitivity, caring, honesty, the possibility of betrayal, justice, hypocrisy, violation of legal norms. In the same part tactfulness in relations with peers and teachers, relatives and strangers is considered. The assessment of the strength of friendship and the ability to protect a loved one in a difficult situation is the same here.
Conclusion. The results of the described qualities of the student are summarized. It talks about the predominant traits of his character and how they affect his studies and personal life. The conclusion is made about what should be changed and how it is more expedient, from the pedagogical point of view, to do it.
Of course, in the characteristics of students it is not necessary to describe all these points in detail, 1-3 sentences are usually enough to state the whole point. But the important points or features of the student (if any) should be described in more detail.
Psychological characteristics
In this section, the methodology for assessing the psychological image of a student will be schematically described. This is the task of the school psychologist, but the teacher must still imagine how this work is carried out.
To compile the psychological characteristics of the student, a number of tests are used to determine the degree of anxiety of the child, the characteristics of his self-esteem and the level of school motivation. Using these tests, psychologists can give a specific answer, which reasons must be taken into account in order to change in a positive direction any negative character traits of the student.
And so, like the description described above, it begins with the name, age and family composition of the person being characterized. The following are the results of the tests carried out, and at the end a conclusion is made based on the analysis of the test results with subsequent recommendations. To assess anxiety, the R. Tammple, V. Amen, M. Dorky test is used, which consists in sequential display of pictures depicting a child in various situations. In this case, in the figure, the child is depicted without a face, and the subject is required to say which face (sad or cheerful) in this situation should be in his (her) opinion. The drawings are divided into groups: a child with peers, with older or younger children, with parents, with teachers. The answers for each group of figures are assessed separately in percentage terms. Generalization of the results allows us to draw a conclusion about one degree or another (in%) of anxiety in various situations.
The conclusion about the features of self-esteem is made on the basis of the "ladder" test. From the name itself, you can guess that the child must put himself on some level and place all the characters proposed to him about himself: parents and relatives (dad, mom, brothers and sisters, grandparents), the school team, friends in the yard and school , teachers. For the convenience of self-assessment calculations, you can offer a ladder with 10 steps. The test results are descriptive in relation to each proposed character.
Based on these tests, a conclusion is made about the child's attitude to school and family. Comparison of test results helps to identify the reasons for a particular student's behavior.
Differences in characteristics for primary and secondary school students and vocational schools
In principle, the characteristics of primary and secondary school students differ only in the age of the child. Both characteristics are compiled according to the above plan. For both junior and high school students, the child's aptitude for the humanities or science is indicated.
The characteristics of students in vocational educational institutions are complemented by the attitude towards the acquired (acquired) profession, success in its development, professional skills. Otherwise, the same characterization plan should be followed.
