The Relationship Between Pre-School Teachers’ Professional Attitude and School Climate Perceptions

Abstract

The purpose of this research is to determine the relationship between the preschool teachers’ professional attitude and their school climate perceptions. For this purpose, this study was carried out in quantitative research design and survey model. The universe of the research consists of 511 teachers working in pre-school education institutions in Sivas city centre and its districts. Participants consisted of 291 teachers, and determined by using simple-random sampling method. ‘Attitude towards Teaching Profession Scale’ and ‘School Climate Scale’ were used as the data collection tools. The results revealed that the scores on attitude towards the teaching profession and school climate perception of teachers were high. It was found that there was a positive and moderate significant relationship between participants’ professional attitude and school climate perceptions. In addition, there was a statistically significant and moderately positive relationship between the preschool teachers’ professional attitude and the school climate sub-dimensions. However, in the conflict sub-dimension, a low-level negative relationship was determined. Preschool teachers’ school climate perceptions predict their attitude towards the teaching profession positively and significantly.
