The Project
What makes early career teachers stay in the profession and what are the pushes that send them to pastures new?
Beginning with a qualitive study focused study on the push and pull factors affecting teachers, the five-year itch intends to explore motivational factors that influence quitting intentions of early career teachers in England. We aim to create and test the efficacy of a tech-based intervention in turning the dial and improving retention rates in this at-risk group.
Research Questions?
- What are the push & pull factors for early career teachers?
- How are psychological needs according to SDT of early career teachers associated with quitting intentions?
