This study examined the level of teachers’ motivation and commitment to the teaching profession in
Tanzania. The results show that the majority of teachers were motivated to join and stay in the teaching
profession due to intrinsic, rather than extrinsic, factors such as intellectual curiosity and feelings of
belongingness to learning community. The results also show that the majority of teachers have very
low level of commitment to the teaching profession. For example, just about a third of the teachers
surveyed reported that they would choose teaching profession if they were to consider choosing it
again. The level of commitment to the teaching profession is associated with the school ownership
category, whether a school is privately or publicly owned, and the level teaching qualification. |
