This study aimed at establishing the role played by school management in handling
career-related stress (HCRS) in secondary schools in Tarime District in Tanzania.
The investigation was conducted through mixed research approach to meet the three
objectives of the study which were to examine the extent of existing level of careerrelated
stress (CRS) among teachers based on their sex, level of education, work
experience and general teachers perception, to identify the main mechanisms used in
handling career-related stress among secondary schools and to evaluate effectiveness
of identified mechanisms in handling career-related stress among teachers in
secondary schools. The study involved 62 participants from six secondary schools
who were selected through purposive and convenient sampling techniques while the
schools were randomly sampled. Data were collected through questionnaire and
interviews .Qualitative data were analysed thematically while quantitative data were
analysed manually and through Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS)
version 20. The study showed that male secondary teachers, diploma holder teachers,
teachers with 4-7 years of work experience have high CRS compared to other
groups. The main effective mechanisms used in HCRS among teachers were
guidance and counselling, sports and games participation, reading different literature
and watching TV, meetings, discussions and social supports. The study recommends
the Ministry of Education, Science, Technology and Vocational Training to develop
and distribute stress management guide that will be used in secondary schools. The
school management members should be trained for HCRS among teachers in
secondary schools for effective empowerment of the Ministry of Education Science,
Technology and Vocational training Policy. |
