Abstract
This study delves into the multifaceted realm of teacher wellbeing in an urban educational setting. It underscores the critical significance of teacher wellbeing as a fundamental component of a thriving educational system. Teacher wellbeing encompasses not only physical health but also mental, emotional, and social aspects, with factors such as work-related stress, the availability of resources, administrative support, and personal coping mechanisms all playing pivotal roles. This study has two primary research objectives: first, to identify the factors contributing to stress among teachers in Ahmedabad City, shedding light on the challenges they face and informing potential interventions to reduce stress in the profession; and second, to analyze the relationship between the demographic profile of teachers (including age, gender, and years of work experience) and their perceptions of wellbeing, thereby uncovering potential variations in wellbeing perceptions among different teacher populations. To achieve a comprehensive understanding, the study interviewed 150 teachers, aiming to capture a diverse cross-section of educators encompassing various demographics, experiences, and teaching contexts within the city. The findings underscore the critical importance of teacher wellbeing in Ahmedabad City's educational landscape, providing insights into areas requiring intervention and support, and highlighting the need for tailored strategies to address the diverse needs of educators. This research contributes not only to the existing knowledge on teacher wellbeing but also offers valuable insights that can inform policies and practices to foster a healthier, more satisfied teaching workforce, ultimately benefiting the entire educational community in Ahmedabad City.
