| Abstract: | Are teacher salaries related to school quality in terms of student academic achievement and teacher retention? Are teacher salaries important factors influencing teacher job satisfaction? Is teacher job satisfaction related to retention? This research addressed these questions using international and national data. First, the literature will be briefly reviewed, and then the method and findings will be presented. The final section includes a discussion and implications of the research for practice. (Contains 2 figures, 6 tables and 40 endnotes.) |
