A Study on Job Satisfaction Level of School Teachers in Ramanathapuram Town

Abstract

In the present study, based on my survey of perception of school teachers in private schools in Ramanathapuram district. On the basis of the response of 100 respondents. The study aims to measure the level of job satisfaction, job involvement and organizational climate of school teachers in private schools in Ramanathapuram town. The Results are demonstrating a substantial association between school working conditions and teacher job satisfaction. More specifically, teacher workload, teacher cooperation and teacher perceptions of student discipline in school were the factors most closely related to teacher job satisfaction. As to teacher characteristics, female teachers, teachers with more exposure to professional development and more efficacious teachers tended to have higher levels of job satisfaction. In addition, it was found that the relationship between the extent of teacher cooperation and job satisfaction was more pronounced for male teachers, while student discipline was more important for job satisfaction of teachers with lower self-efficacy beliefs.
