dc.description.abstractABSTRACT This study was designed to investigate the factors influencing business teacher turnover in Imo state secondary school. It studied the following variables: resigned to accept better position, family problems, working conditions, social status and dissatisfaction with present conditions. Two population groups were used for this study. A total of 296 business teachers still teaching, randomly selected from 301 state-owned secondary schools contributed the sample for the first group and a total of 375 business teachers who have withdrawn from teaching located throughout the the sate was sampled for the second group. A questionaire was administered to survey the perceptions of the subjects to determine which factors showed significant relationship with business teacher turnover. Frequency distribution and percentages, means scores and pearson product moment coefficient correlation and t-test were used to analyse the data. Result revealed significant relationship between resignation for better position, working conditions, social status, dissatisfaction and teacher turnover. Available better position in the private sector, unfavourable working conditions, lack of recognition, coupled with the poor vii image of the teacher drive teachers from teaching profession to jobs offering career fulfilment. Comparatively, the perception of the male business teachers do not differ from the perception of the female business teachers on causes of teacher turnover. Similarly the perception of business teachers who have left teaching for other jobs in the private sectors do not differ from the perception of those who are still teaching regarding causes of business teacher turnover. Teachers withdraw for jobs in other sectors to be able to cope with effect of increased burden of family responsibility in a depressed economy such as ours and aggravated by the irregular payment of monthly salaries and allowances and pensions and gratuity to teachers in the state secondary school system while other public servants are paid promptly and regularly. A major implication of business teacher turnover is that the objectives of education for all about business and for business will not be attained and this will have far reaching consequences on business decisions of the school for lack of teachers to effectively teach them.en_US
