Current situation of primary education specialty
At present, the number of primary education professionals is declining. With the decrease of primary school students, the merger of schools and the saturation of primary school teachers, it is difficult for new teachers to enter. Compared with education and training institutions, the school's work is more stable. Schools are divided into public schools and private schools.

Teachers in public schools have less work pressure, stable work and good welfare. Because the establishment is paid by the state, the retirement pension will be more secure and suitable for people who like a stable life.

Primary education major belongs to pedagogy in professional disciplines, among which pedagogy major 10. The major of primary education ranks third in the major of pedagogy and fourth in the whole category of pedagogy.

Graduates majoring in primary education are mainly engaged in primary school teaching and children's education. There are more than 250 undergraduate colleges and universities in China offering primary education majors, which shows that there are still more graduates every year. But whether it is saturated or not depends on different situations.

At present, many in-service teachers in primary schools have undergraduate degrees, some have passed self-study exams, some have studied by correspondence, and there are many other ways. In the words of an in-service teacher, it is not difficult to get a bachelor's degree in society. Take correspondence learning as an example. As long as you pay some money every year and take some classes if you have time, you can get a bachelor's degree without much trouble.

An important advantage of undergraduate primary education students' employment is undergraduate education, but this advantage is not obvious, because there are many ways for in-service teachers to obtain high education. After all, in-service teachers have teaching experience and preconceived ideas. If they have the same academic qualifications, the school will never dismiss in-service teachers and introduce new teachers.

Since a few years ago, teachers' access has been liberalized to the society. As long as social workers with teacher qualification certificates pass the exam, they can enter the education system and compete for teacher positions. Especially with the increasing difficulty of social employment, many students from Chinese Department, Mathematics Department, English Department and even graduate students have joined the competition of primary school teachers, which undoubtedly increases the employment difficulty of undergraduate primary school education students.
