Satisfaction of students of higher educational institutions with their professional activities in todays reality is one of the key indicators which diagnoses the quality of specialists training and efficiency of professional competence development. Satisfaction assumes personal students inclusion in educational process which is inseparably linked with the personality relation to the quality of these or those objects, to living conditions and activity as well as to himself or herself. The assessment is the most important element of the emotional sphere of the person, emotions stimulate motivation to activity. We understand the integrated characteristic including motivational and emotional spheres of the personality as satisfaction. This estimated relations between trainers according to the activity which they carry out, its results and implementation conditions. Vocational training of cadets is carried out in specific conditions of their stay in barracks on the territory of departmental higher education institution. In the integrated characteristic of satisfaction of trainees vocational training included three criteria: satisfaction with the educational process; satisfaction with extracurricular activities; relationship satisfaction. The first criterion contains satisfaction: 1) organization of educational process; 2) level of teachers professionalism; 3) quality of teaching. We put satisfaction indicators into the second criterion: 1) organization of work of circles, sections and clubs; 2) organization of sports and mass actions; 3) organization of events which help to develop professional competence of a future officer of Penitentiary system. The third criterion assumes satisfaction with relations with teachers, with collective and the direct management. Questioning of the 2nd and the 5th year cadets of Samara Law Institute of the Federal Penitentiary Service of Russia showed that by the 5th course the positive tendency in a satisfaction assessment is found with vocational training. The criterion satisfaction with extracurricular activities needs a separate additional analysis, as by the 5th course the amount of students satisfied with circles, sections and clubs is less than a third of a total number of the course students. By the third criterion some complexity in relationship with the direct management (with commanders of front divisions) is found out and it also should become a subject of special additional consideration.

The preschool learning environment is vital for young children’s learning and development. This study reports, for the first time in the UK, an online survey of 83 preschool practitioners’ perceptions, classroom practices, and beliefs towards mathematics. Surveyed preschool practitioners rated life skills and literacy as more important than mathematics. They reported implementing activities focused on literacy in their daily classroom routine significantly more frequently than mathematics. Mathematics activities were typically formal, despite the belief that children learn mathematics best through play. Finally, preschool practitioners’ confidence and beliefs towards mathematics were associated with overall frequency of and perceived importance of mathematics in the early years, respectively. This highlights the need to enrich preschool practitioners’ awareness, knowledge, and confidence surrounding early mathematics to improve provision and raise attainment. This has important implications for addressing potential challenges as part of current proposed changes to the framework guiding early years practice in the UK.
