Abstract

The study was conducted to assess the degree of relationship between effectiveness and organizational commitment of school teachers. The data were collected randomly by selecting 168 secondary school teachers from different schools in Balurghat block through the use of the Teacher Effectiveness Scale by Kumar and Mutha and Teacher’s Organizational Commitment Scale by Jamal and Raheem. The sample consisted of 55.95% male teachers and 44.05% female teachers. The descriptive survey method was employed to carry out this quantitative research. The findings revealed that a significant high positive correlation (r=0.653) exists between personality dimension and Commitment to Teaching Works (CTW) dimension; and a low positive correlation (r=0.396) exists between academic dimension and Commitment to School (CTS) dimension among male teachers. So the most contributing dimension of teacher effectiveness (TE) is personality dimension among male teachers. Whereas, the most contributing dimensions of organizational commitment is Commitment to Teaching Works (CTW) among male teachers. The result also revealed that a significant high positive correlation (r=0.589) exists between academic dimension and Commitment to Teaching Works (CTW) dimension; and a low positive correlation (r=0.306) exists between professional dimension and Commitment to School (CTS) dimension. So the most contributing dimension of teacher effectiveness (TE) is academic dimension among female teachers. Whereas, the most contributing dimensions of organizational commitment is Commitment to Teaching Works (CTW).
