Teachers’ job satisfaction plays a vital role, not only for education career, but also for improving teaching and learning quality and even for a nation’s development which can help create the strength and effectiveness for school system. The current study aims to analyze the factors that are closely associated with teacher job satisfaction as well as to investigate the possible influence of individual background variables upon teaching career. In this study, we implemented the investigation by surveying job satisfaction among junior secondary school teachers. The data are carried out by using multiple statistical analyses, including exploratory factor analysis, reliability analysis, mean point value, multiple linear regressions, correlations analysis, t-test of significance, and one-wayanalysis of variance. The results indicate that teachers’ job satisfaction derived from a variety of sources and seems to have a greater impact on school administration and school safety, whereas salary and compensation are the main causes of job dissatisfaction. One more finding is that teachers’ job satisfaction is significantly correlated with genders, years of teaching, and educational background. The findings also provide useful implications for educational policies with the goal in terms of teachers’ teaching satisfaction, improving teaching and learning quality, and stabilizing the teachers who can retain in education and reducing the turnover rate.
