Abstract: This study examines students’ attitudes towards the teaching profession and the impact of a set of variables, namely: gender, educational level, and the academic average in general, on secondary education. The study sample included 87 students who were chosen randomly. The researcher developed a questionnaire distributed into three domains: self-satisfaction, social status of the teaching profession, and reasons for selecting the teaching profession. The study found that there was a positive attitude toward the teaching profession, with gender being a significant variable, favorable to males. Additionally, the educational level variable favored students in their third and fourth years, while the academic average in general secondary education favored those with a moderate or lower academic average. Based on the findings, it was recommended to enhance student training, retraining, and motivation in education. Tracer investigations should also be carried out to ensure that students are well-motivated and trained. It is believed that this will increase their commitment and learning outcomes.
