ABSTRACT
School psychologists are mediators and users of in-school and out-of-school psychology. When working with teachers and pupils, existing skills need to be expanded in order to be able to act independently and responsibly in terms of proper education and upbringing. School psychologists are part of every school system. They are trained and have good knowledge in mental health, child development, learning theories, motivation, educational psychology, etc. Psychologists should also have a good knowledge of learning theories and innovative developments. With their dedication, they could help teachers to keep pace with new developments, applying new forms, methods and modalities in the learning process. School psychologists are professionals who in Kosovo are part of the pedagogical service. Despite the fact that in the Kosovo legislation, in schools where the number of pupil’s is over 1,000, it is foreseen to have a psychologist, however, a small number of psychologists are employed in schools. The purpose of research on this topic is to ascertain what is the support of the school psychologist for the introduction of positive innovations in learning. Survey results showed that about 61.4% of participants agree that school psychologist has a role in introducing positive developmental innovations in learning, 25.5% of them to some extent agree, while 13.1% of participants disagree that the school psychologist has a role in introducing positive developmental innovations in learning. Empirical results showed that there are statistically significant differences between teachers of different ages regarding the role of the psychologist in introducing innovations in teaching, where F = 3.755 and p = 0.006 < 0.05.
