In the quantitative part of the study, the subjective well-being levels of the classroom teachers were analysed according to the variables of gender, age, region of employment, professional experience, educational status and grade level taught, and the qualitative part was designed with the phenomenology method and examined according to the sub-dimensions of school engagement and teaching efficacy. In the quantitative part of the study, there were 340 participants, and the Teacher Subjective Well-being Questionnaire was used, while in the qualitative part, 27 participants were included, and the subjective well-being level was examined according to the sub-dimensions of school engagement and teaching efficacy.
