Abstract

ABSTRACT Examining the changes in teachers’ experiences of their job resources, job demands and personal resources can reveal important insights into the profession. Accordingly, semi-structured interviews were conducted with an initial sample of 21 primary and secondary school teachers in England at three time points during COVID-19 (February 2021, July 2021 and July 2022). Four themes were identified in a longitudinal thematic analysis, namely: teachers’ perceptions of disconnection with and disrespect from the government; relationships are central to teacher wellbeing and work engagement; teachers’ preference for the physical school over the online/hybrid school; and reflections on teachers’ increased self-efficacy in using technology and increased resilience to change. Implications for practice and policy are discussed.
