Abstract

To solve the problem of rural teacher retention, it is necessary to systematically explore its influencing factors from the perspectives of theory, policy and technology, find the realistic starting point for improvement, and put forward the optimization path for the operation of retention strategy. Based on 4746 data collected from 10 regions in Heilongjiang province of China, this paper makes an in-depth study on the influencing factors, and transmission mechanism of rural teacher retention. The results show that: (1) There is a significant correlation between teachers’ professional quality, organizational commitment, matching degree and compensation intensity, and rural teachers’ retention, and organizational commitment is the most influential factor. (2) The professional quality of teachers significantly affects the retention of rural teachers through the mediating effect of organizational commitment, and matching degree. (3) Compensation intensity plays a significant moderating role in the influence of teachers’ professional quality on organizational commitment, matching degree and retention of rural teachers, and the positive moderating effect of low compensation intensity is stronger. In order to retain rural teachers better, it is necessary to provide strong support conditions, and enhance the level of teachers’ organizational commitment. Enhance the matching degree between teachers and rural environment in multiple dimensions. The data system of rural teachers’ human resources should be established, and appropriate compensation policies should be formulated.
