What Makes Public School Teachers Stay, Leave or
become Non-teachers?. Edition No. 1
VDM Publishing House, April 2009, Pages: 80
This work differentiated three groups of public
school teachers: those who Leave, those who become
Non-teaching educators and those who Stay in
teaching and then analyzed their personal
characteristics, beliefs, and perceptions leading to
their decision. Low pay was cited as one of the main
reasons for leaving teaching entirely. Moving within
education for a non-teaching position was the reason
for leaving for non-teaching educators. Compared to
the other two groups, those who stayed in teaching
were more likely to be satisfied in their current
job/position in several aspects such as— fringe
benefits, challenge of work, and further education.
Additionally, those who stayed were more likely to
stay and be satisfied with their professions when
they had autonomy in their classroom, student
discipline and class size were not a problem, when
they received support from parents and students had
motivation to learn. Decision tree models showed
that younger teachers were more likely to be
satisfied with student motivation and support from
parents.
