This research report investigated the role of school management on teacher motivation in
Tanzania. The study explored the sharp decrease implementation of motivation schemes
provisions for public secondary school teachers. This was pursued under the specific
objectives; which were to identify and examine teacher motivation schemes in public
secondary schools; to examine the position of school management in the design and
implementation of motivation schemes; to identify and examine the challenges
encountered in the implementation of the available motivation schemes in public
secondary schools and to determine the ways of overcoming the challenges in order to
improve the implementation of motivation schemes in public secondary schools
implemented by school management.
A case study research design was used to quantitatively explore the relationships among
variables; (Glasow, 2005). Two public secondary schools were selected to represent the
entire population in Nyamagana district. The purposeful sampling technique and stratified
sampling technique were used to select the 68 respondents from the particular formal
public secondary schools that were the sample size required for the research study. In the
study report both quantitative and qualitative methods were used to analyze data from the
selected respondents. Data were coded and processed using the Statistical Package for
Social Science at Mzumbe Mzumbe University in Morogoro hence improved with the aid
of Excel program.
The results of the study indicated that there is a close relationship between school
management and teacher motivation. Besides, it was noted that job satisfaction is the
strong factor in predicting job motivation that automatically will have positive effect on
school performance. A well motivated teacher has job satisfaction and shows commitment
to the tasks entrusted with the sense of belongingness. The findings revealed that school
management in public secondary schools can make use of various plans and policies to
motivate teachers. Teachers are interested in good salaries, promotion, recognition, good
working conditions and other fringe benefits as motivational elements that can push
teachers to give out their best. |
