Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of head teachers’ leadership styles on teachers’ job satisfaction in public secondary schools. The study used a descriptive survey design based on mixed research approach. Both purposive and random sampling techniques were used in selecting 10 head of schools and 80 teachers respectively. The primary data were collected using questionnaires and interview guidelines. Collected data were descriptively analysed to generate frequencies and percentages. The study findings demonstrate that using a democratic leadership style by heads of schools improves teachers’ job satisfaction. Despite the fact that heads of school leadership seemed to be a very important factor in teachers’ job satisfaction in the schools but it was concluded that they need to have leadership skills to increase teachers’ job satisfaction.
