Abstract
Teaching is said to be a nation building activity and the teacher is the architect of the future. He is the pivot around which all the educational programmes such as curriculum, syllabus, textbooks, evaluation etc., revolve. The best system of education may fail to achieve the desired ends in the absence of sincere, competent and professionally talented teachers. The teacher has the rare privilege of shaping the most precious material of the land – the boys and the girls during their crucial period of development. The teacher is expected to perform the roles of a planned organizer of curricula, an innovator of educational ideas, practices and systems, a resource person in the propagation of ever expanding knowledge and a motivator to learners in several ways. The teacher can render his/her services effectively only when he/she is satisfied with the profession. The term ‘professional satisfaction’ refers to the positive and favorable attitude of an individual towards the profession. Effective teaching requires a feeling of satisfaction and positive identification of the teacher with the profession. The present study is an attempt to know the influence of certain demographic variables – gender, age, designation and teaching experience on the professional satisfaction of secondary school teachers. The investigators followed descriptive survey method for the present study. A well-developed and standardized questionnaire was used to collect data from a sample of 500 teachers working in the secondary schools of Visakhapatnam district in Andhra Pradesh. The sample was selected using Stratified Random sampling method. Mean score values, standard deviations and independent t-tests were used for analysis of data. The findings of the study revealed that the demographic variables – gender, age, designation and teaching experience have no influence on the professional satisfaction of secondary school teachers.
