dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this thesis is to examine the relationship between the work environment, occupational stress, counterproductive work behavior (CWB) and teacher performance in private and public secondary schools. A total of 158 teachers were randomly got from selected private and public secondary schools in Kampala and Wakiso districts to complete a questionnaire made up of valid and reliable instruments that measured each of the variables studied. The findings indicate that the aspect of introducing new initiatives in the teachers’ work environment plays an important role of predicting the level of occupational stress, counterproductive work behavior and performance of teachers in the private and public secondary schools. Teachers who experienced higher levels of occupational stress and exhibited higher levels of counterproductive work behavior due to new initiatives in their work environment had a lower level of performance. The results indicate that the ministry of education and sports needs to provide the secondary school teachers with necessary materials and equipments to implement the new initiatives so as to make them real and practical to maintain high teacher performance.
