Abstract
Effective teacher placement is one of the
most difficult problems facing educational
administrators today. The data shows that 25% of
teachers are leaving the job within their first year of
service and 50% within their first 5 years of service.
Much of this teacher attrition is believe to be
attributed to poor hiring and placement practices.
With modern research highlighting the importance of
teachers’ personalities and dispositions to both their
effectiveness and longevity, it is clear that new
teacher placement models will be in demand.
The objectives of this research are as follows:
1. To investigate if there is a relationship
between teacher personality and the academic success
of their students
2. To compare these potential relationships
across four core subject areas and grade levels 1-6.
3. To propose an effective contingency-based
personality model of teacher placement for use in
international Singaporean primary schools in Thailand.
