본 연구에서는 진로교육에 관한 지체부자유 특수학교 초등부의 운영 실태와 진로교육에 대한 교사의 인식을 알아보기 위하여 교사들이 근무하는 학교의 지역별, 교사들의 성별, 특수교육경력별, 학년별, 역할별 변인에 그 특성을 분석하였다. 연구대상은 전국에 분포되어 있는 지체부자유 특수학교 20개 학교의 초등부 담당교사 224명을 대상으로 하였고, 회수된 180부를 연구자료로 활용하였다. 연구결과 지체부자유학교 초등부에서는 진로교육을 실시하지 않는 경우가 대부분이었다. 교사들은 초등부 진로교육이 매우 중요하다고 인식하고 있으며, 진로교육에서는 현장견학이 많은 도움이 된다고 인식하였다. 진로교육 개선 방안 면에서 교사의 전문성 강화를 위한 연수 기회를 확대, 현장 견학의 확대 실시와 특수교육지원센터를 활용한 체계적인 진로교육 계획을 제시하였다.
