Summary/Abstract: Informatics and information literacy in teaching profession are necessary competences for a functioning teacher in a new virtual environment. Teachers as digital immigrants have to master the basics of informatics and information technologies in order to respond to the needs of their students, digital natives. The research focussed on informatics and information literacy of teachers in secondary schools, which was examined regarding several variables such as the size of the city the teachers live and work in, gender and age, teaching subject and type of school they work in (general secondary or vocational secondary school). The study shows that there are no differences in informatics and information literacy level of teachers whether they work ina a small ar a big city, as there are no differences regarding the geneder of the teachers or the subject area. There are, however, differences concerning the age of the teachers and the type of school they work in.
