The final sample consisted of 434 teachers. A questionnaire on the current educational situation in rural and urban schools of Boyacá was used for data collection. The content validity of the questionnaire was analyzed through the Expert Judgment Technique. As for the internal consistency, Cronbach alpha was 0.79. The main results revealed significant differences in the relationship between teachers and students -better in the rural area- as well as in the needs -rural institutions had higher requirements.
