Abstract :

Present study focuses on primary school teachers who teach students from class I to IV in Kharagpur–I. Simple random sampling technique was adopted and 150 primary teachers (110 non–government and 40 government) of 45 primary schools (30 non–government and 15 government) situated in the Block of Kharagpur–I, district Paschim Medinipur in West Bengal were selected. Standardized tools Teacher’s Job Satisfaction Scale (For Primary School Teachers) by Saxena, S. K. (1994) and School Organizational Climate Description Questionnaire (SOCDQ) by Sharma, M. (1973) were used. The obtained data analyzed by Pearson’s Correlation Coefficient (r) were computed and tested for statistical significance when t–value (t_r=(r√(N–2))/√(1–r^2 ) ) equaled or exceeded the t–critical value in the t–distribution table. It was found that there was significant relationship between primary teachers’ job satisfaction and their organizational climate with its dimension of esprit, intimacy, and Production Emphasis. Moreover, statistically there was significant relationship between primary teachers’ job satisfaction and their organizational climate (t0bs=2.98 >t0.01, 148=2.61).
