Participants were 120 students (75 males and 45 females) mean age ± 22.85at the last year at Faculty of Sport and Physical Education from University of Belgrade (UBG), University of Nis (UNI) and University of Novi Sad (UNS). Situational-specificSelf-Efficacy and PhysicalEducatorsScale (SE-PETE-D, Block, Hutzler, Barak&Klavina, 2013) was used to measure the self-efficacy of PE studentsas well additional information about previous courses and experiences had been provided by questionnaire. T-test indicated statistical differences considering gender at the UBG toward teaching students with ID (mean F= 3.95 while mean of male responses was 3.50; p=0.01) and at the UNI toward teaching students with VI (mean of F= 4.13, M= 3.47; p=0.03). Significant differences have been found among students‟ level of self-efficacy from three Universities toward teaching students with ID (F=8.76; p=0.00) and PD (F=5.03; p=0.01) in GPE classes in Serbia.
