Yildiz, Vahit Aga
International Journal of Curriculum and Instruction, v13 n2 p1583-1596 2021
The purpose of the quantitative study was to determine the relationship between school attachment of primary school students and their teachers' job satisfaction. Within this frame, it was also aimed to determine whether these two parameters differ in terms of some demographic variables. The research was carried out as a correlational survey. The participants consisted of 610 primary school students and 22 class teachers in different primary schools in Erzurum, Turkey. The data of the study were collected via the "School Attachment Scale for Children and Adolescents" and the "Job satisfaction scale". Pearson correlation analysis, independent samples t-test, and one-way analysis of variance were used in the analysis of the data. The results revealed that there was no significant relationship between the students' attachment to school and their teachers' job satisfaction. Also, it was determined that there were some differences in terms of the study groups. It was determined that students' attachment to school did not differ according to grade level, but there were significant differences on behalf of the boys. It was also found out that job satisfaction of teachers differed in terms of the class size they were teaching, their age, their professional experience, the years of teaching their class, and their teaching years in their current school.
