The purpose of the study was to examine the effects of management styles on teachers’ turnover in private secondary schools in Budaka District.

The study adopted Fredrick Herzberg’s (1959) Two Factor theory and a sample of 152 respondents from a target population of 250 respondent, selected using both simple random sampling and purposive sampling who comprised of; school heads and deputies, teachers and district education officials. The study adopted the descriptive survey research design. Questionnaires and interview guides were used to collect data from the respondents. Quantitative data was analyzed using the SPSS software. Frequencies, means and percentages were used to discuss the findings while the qualitative data was analyzed using thematic analysis. The study found out that head teachers’ management styles had effect on teachers’ turnover in private schools in Budaka District. The study recommends that: Head teachers should adopt a blend or mix of management styles since the findings show that one management style may be of importance in a given situation but not all situations, The school head teachers should adopt Transformational management style in form of capacity building programs which will provide opportunities for teachers and make them feel a belonging hence reduce teacher turnover and Since it was revealed that head teachers are rule oriented in their schools, Authoritarian and Transact management styles should be limitedly applied in schools to ensure low contribution to teacher turnover rate. | |
