Abstract

This study aims to understand how teacher-pupil relations affect pupils’ subject preference, and what impacts it might have to pupils’ academic attainments. Factors of how teacher-pupil relations come to being are investigated. Pupils are a group of children who are aged 6-12. Their mind and world view have not fully formed yet. When pupils go to school to accept compulsory lessons, they will have their personal preference to the subjects they have learn about. Their preferences are diverse, partially for the discrepancy of personalities. By reviewing former researches and findings, the study explored the effects the relations might bring to individuals growth and school attainments. The importance of relations has been pointed out. In the process of studying, some population characteristics are discovered that they might be involved in when bad relations happen between teachers and pupils. When bad relations or conflicts have risen between pupils and teachers, pupils with different socio-demographic elements have different attitudes towards their teachers. This will also influence pupils’ subject preference when bad relations come to being. Relative literatures have been looked up to find out the correlations among them. In a word, subject preference can be affected with the alteration of relations, and it can be related to some population features. This study also illuminates one of the goals of relative researches in the future: researchers should pay attention to the prevention done by teachers to avoid bad relations and the solution of mitigating bad relations when they actually happen between teachers and pupils
