Teacher Effectiveness Among Kendriya Vidyalaya And Navodaya Vidyalaya School Teachers In Relation To Organizational Climate

Abstract

The present study was conducted to study teacher effectiveness among Kendriya Vidyalaya and Navodaya Vidyalaya school teachers in relation to organizational climate. The sample of study comprised of 370 secondary school teachers (185 teachers from Kendriya Vidyalayas and 185 teachers from Navodaya Vidyalayas) were selected randomly from twelve districts of state of Himachal Pradesh, India giving fairly equal representation to gender and locale. Teacher Effectiveness Scale by Umme Kulsum (2017), Organizational Climate Scale for teachers by Singh (2015) were used to collect data. The result of the study revealed high positive correlation between Teacher Effectiveness and Organizational Climate among both Kendriya Vidyalaya and Navodaya Vidyalaya school teachers. This suggests that a favorable organizational climate may contribute to enhanced teacher effectiveness in both types of schools. Further, the significant positive relationship between teacher effectiveness and organizational climate of school teachers of Kendriya Vidyalayas indicates, “better the organizational climate, higher the teacher effectiveness” whereas “poorer the organizational climate, lower the teacher effectiveness.”
