Abstract
The Quality of education depends on the quality of teachers. For nourishing the creative potentials of children, creative teaching is required. In this type of education, the available human and material resources are utilized in such a striking way that satisfactory results are ensured. Teachers using such methods can enhance their teaching competency. In the present study, an attempt is made to investigate the relationship between general teaching competency and the attitude towards creative teaching. The study was carried out on a sample of 120 B.Ed. trainees of Aurangabad City. The data was collected through the General Teaching Competency Scale (GTCS) developed by Passi and Lalitha and the Attitude Scale of Creative Teaching (ASCT) by Shukla. The result reveals that there is positive but low and negligible correlation between general teaching competency and attitude towards creative teaching. Results also portray that the degree of general teaching competency is high and attitude towards creative teaching is also positive.

Summary
The process of learning is continuous and is influenced by innate potential and the physical circumstances in which a person lives, and by Teaching is inherently dynamic but like any other system it faces the danger of becoming monotonous and gradually degenerate. A large variety of factors keep the teacher's creative efforts low because of this, he has the constant tendency to remain where he is and his energy dissipates. The principal solution to this dangerous tendency would be to keep the teacher's creative efforts at a much higher plane. Teaching competency as defined by various authors includes more than mere teacher's effects or pupils outcomes. According to some authors it includes knowledge, attitude, skill and other teacher characteristics. Some others perceive teacher's competence as teacher's behaviour that produces intended effects
