Abstract:

The study aimed to identify the level of job satisfaction and teaching performance of public secondary school teachers in Bataraza, Palawan for the school year 2021-2022. There were 47 public secondary school teachers who served as the respondents of the study. The study investigated the demographic profile of the respondents as to age, sex, civil status, length of service, highest educational attainment, teaching position, salary; their job satisfaction level, and teaching performance. Most of the respondents were from 30-34 years old, female, married, with master’s units, 6 to 10 years in service, teacher I, with salary ranging from 21,000.00 to 25,999.00; satisfied with their job in terms of personal development and professional development; very satisfied with their school environment and school leadership; and were merely satisfied with their salary. Most of them performed Very Satisfactory based on their IPCRF rating for five consecutive school years from 2016-2021. There is a weak positive correlation between age and job satisfaction level as well as between length of service and job satisfaction level. Salary and satisfaction level have weak relationship; civil status has no significance among the job satisfaction level of the respondents. The data revealed that age, sex, civil status, teaching position, highest educational attainment, and teaching performance have no significant relationship with the job satisfaction level of the respondents.
