dc.description.abstractThe primary objective of this study was to determine the nature of stress experienced by teachers in schools of industries and to determine whether there are significant statistically relevant differences in the stress levels and manifestations for teachers in mainstream education and schools of industry. Secondary aims were to determine whether variables such as the gender, age and experience play a role in the perceived levels of stress manifestations. A total of 106 teachers participated in this study. A total of 40 (37,7%) teachers came from the two schools of industry and 66 from the two mainstream schools. The teachers were asked to complete the Teachers Concerns Inventory which included a short demographic survey. Analysis of the variance revealed that teachers from schools of industries experience high levels of stress. Fifteen of the 40 teachers (37,5%) indicated that stress is a problem to them, while approximately half of the teachers (19 of the 40) indicated that the intensity of stress experienced, was higher than average. The study showed that teachers experience high levels of stress with regard to time management, work-related stressors, professional distress, discipline and motivation and professional investment as wel as high levels of stress manifestations with regard to emotional, fatigue, cardiovascular, gastronomic and behavioural manifestations. The results of this study indicated that there are no difference between the stress levels and stress manifestation for teachers in schools of industry and mainstream schools and that demographic variables do not play a significant role in the stress levels of teachers.en_US
