Nasir Mahmood vii A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF CONTRACTUAL AND REGULAR TEACHERS’ PROFESSIONAL ATTITUDE TOWARDS JOB SATISFACTION AND JOB PERFORMANCE Researcher: Nasir Mahmood Supervisor: Dr. Muhammad Saeed ABSTRACT The main purpose of this study was to determine the relationship among professional attitude of teachers, their job satisfaction and job performance and their comparison between regular and contractual teachers in Pakistan. The study was delimited to the contractual (SSEs) and regular (SSTs) teachers and head teachers of government secondary schools of Punjab province, the most populated province of Pakistan. It was carrying mixed-methods research approach i.e. data were qualitative and quantitative. For the qualitative data, an interview protocol was designed for the executives i.e. DPIs, Addl. DPIs, EDOs and DEOs. Some open-ended questions were also included in the questionnaire to collect the qualitative data of the study. The quantitative data were collected from a sample of 332 regular teachers, 313 contractual teachers and 645 head teachers of secondary schools through developing three questionnaires on five point rating scales; two for the teachers (to measure their professional attitude and job satisfaction) and one for the head teachers (to rate teachers job performance). The instruments were duly validated through expert opinions and the reliability was established through pilot study on a small sample in two districts Kasur and Lahore. The reliability of the final questionnaires was established at .784, .780 and .944 for professional attitude, job satisfaction and job performance respectively. The quantitative data of the two questionnaires were analyzed on the basis of mean, standard deviation, viii Independent Samples t-test (Levene’s test and 2-tailed t-test) and Pearson Correlation. Qualitative data were analyzed by converting raw data into frequencies and placing in identical categories of responses. Results were presented in tables and with frequencies and the opinion of respondents was calculated in percentage to draw the inferences. The key findings of the study revealed that professional attitude of teachers had positive relationship with job satisfaction and job performance; job satisfaction of teachers had positive relationship with their job performance. Professional attitude in combination with Job Satisfaction appeared to have more significant positive relationship with job performance. Regular SSTs teachers had better professional attitude, job satisfaction and job performance level than contractual SSEs teachers; female teachers had relatively better professional attitude, job satisfaction and job performance level than male teachers and urban teachers had more positive professional attitude, job satisfaction and job performance level than rural teachers. Majority of the teachers liked their children or relatives to join teaching profession; although they showed dissatisfaction with the existing pay scale and financial package for teachers and suggested for recruitment of teachers on regular basis. Most of the head teachers disagreed that teachers should be recruited on contract basis. They thought that contractual teachers do not perform well due to their low salary package and unsecured job. The educational managers i.e. EDOs, DEOs, DPI and Addl. DPI were of the view that regular (SSTs), female and urban teachers have more positive attitude towards teaching profession, better job satisfaction and job performance than their contractual (SSEs), male and rural teachers counterparts. ix TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Topic Page No i Title i, ii ii Dedication iv iii Approval Sheet v iv Acknowledgement vi vi Abstract viii vii Table of Contents x viii List of Tables xv x List of Figures xvii ix List of Appendices xviii I INTRODUCTION 1 1.1 Statement of the Problem 6 1.2 Significance of the Study 6 1.3 Objectives of the Study 7 1.4 Research Questions of the Study 8 1.5 Hypotheses of the Study 8 1.6 Delimitations of the Study 10 1.7 Operational Definitions of the Terms 10 1.8 Acronyms 11 II REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE 12 2.1 Education 12 2.2 Concept of teaching 15 2.2.1 Teaching effectiveness in teaching 16 x 2.2.2 What is profession 17 2.2.3 Teaching as a profession 17 2.2.4 Approaches to professionalism 18 2.2.5 Factors diminishing professionalism 19 2.3 Conceptual Dimensions of Attitudes 20 2.3.1 Definition of attitude 20 2.3.2 Components of attitude 22 2.3.3 How attitude function 23 2.3.4 Attitudes and behavior 25 2.3.5 The Structure of attitudes 26 2.3.6 Attitude formation 27 2.3.7 Attitude change 28 2.3.8 Attitude source 30 2.4 Teachers Professional Attitudes 32 2.4.1 Professional attitude and teacher commitment 33 2.4.2 Professional attitude and teacher personality 34 2.4.3 Professional attitude and teacher effectiveness 35 2.4.4 Professional attitude models of teacher effectiveness 37 2.4.5 Predispositions and attitude: power of predispositions in 39 shaping experience and behaviour 2.4.6 Teachers attitude towards teaching 40 2.4.7 In-service teachers beliefs and attitudes about teaching 48 2.4.8 Determinants factors of teaching as a career choice 48 2.5 Recruitment of Contractual Teachers in the Punjab 52 2.5.1 Historical background of contract mode of recruitment 53 2.5.2 Rationale for recruitment on contract mode 53 2.6 Teachers job satisfaction

  • Education System of Pakistan and the UK: Comparisons in Context to Inter-Provincial and Inter-Countries Reflections
    Bulletin of Education & Research December 2007, Vol. 29, No. 2, pp. 43-57 Education System of Pakistan and the UK: Comparisons in Context to Inter-provincial and Inter-countries Reflections Muhammad Saeed* Abstract This paper addresses the comparisons of the education system of Pakistan and the UK from six dimensions i.e. education and training authority, educational structure, curriculum formulation, assessment and evaluation, supervision and management, and teacher education and training. The results revealed that against all these six dimensions, similarities and differences exist within four provinces of Pakistan, but these are relatively more prominent while comparing the four countries in the UK: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. In England, national curriculum tests at different grade levels are statutory; both in England and Wales teachers’ induction and inspection of schools are more structured than in Ireland and Scotland. The length of first degree programmes is usually one year more in Scotland than other three countries in the UK. In Pakistan, education system is relatively more alike across the four provinces due to uniform national curricula and policy formulation at federal level. The continuous assessment system from grade 1-12 is relatively more structured in Punjab. The overall achievement level of students is relatively high in Sindh, Punjab and NWFP lie in the middle; and Balochistan and other regions ranked at the lowest. Low achievement in English and mathematics is a common feature in Pakistan and the UK. Key Words: Education system, inter-provincial, inter-countries comparison. Background International comparisons in education and training are of great importance to understand the recent innovations and developments in countries.
