description The cooperation of the support teacher with the general teacher in an inclusive class is one of the determinants of successful inclusive education. The aim of the research is to analyze the scope and frequency of their cooperation in diagnostic, planning, organizational and educational tasks, as well as their satisfaction with this cooperation and the challenges experienced.  The correlation of these variables with teachers’ qualifications, professional rank, availability of professional development, and participation in training were analyzed as well. A sample of 200 Polish primary school support teachers were surveyed by on-line questionnaire. The result shows that most of the respondents’ tasks involve cooperation with the general teacher. Moreover, their professional development correlates positively with the frequency of accomplishing these tasks. The majority of respondents found this cooperation satisfactory and never experienced difficulties in this respect.
