This article examines the main trends teacher training in the Russian secondary education. Based on the analysis of theoretical and methodological approaches and several empirical works, the authors draw a conclusion about the importance of stable replenishment of the professional structure, including at the level of general education, as well as the presence of a number of factors influencing its success. Such factors include territorial conditions, (as well as socio-economic and demographic ones), changes in the population’s education level and the education system’s specifics (e. g., the presence of pre-vocational education as a mechanism for recruiting potential employees), among other groups of factors. This article analyzes the statistical data from the RF Ministry of Education on the number, structure, and dynamics of personnel movement in organizations implementing general education programs. The authors show several negative trends associated with an increase in the number of teachers who have left their jobs and an increase in the number of rates per full-time education worker, as well as an increase in the number of positions vacant at the beginning of the school year. The described trends have specific manifestations in urban and rural educational organizations, and manifest themselves with varying degrees of intensity in various subject areas, increasing problems with training, primarily in natural science subjects.Keywords:
