Abstract: Teacher is considered as a crucial component of any educational program. For implementation of the educational process at any stage teacher plays a very significant role. This present study aimed to assess the current status of secondary level school teachers’ attitudes towards teaching and their levels of job satisfaction, with a focus on identifying gender-based differences. Employing descriptive survey method, this study was carried out on a sample of 195 school teachers drawn from various secondary schools across the Purba Bardhaman district, West Bengal. Data were being collected using two 5-point Likert-type scales: the Teacher’s Attitude Towards Teaching Scale (Vidushy & Kishor, 2021) and the Teacher’s Job Satisfaction Scale (Madan & Malik, 2020). Results revealed that secondary level school teachers possess strongly positive attitude towards teaching but job satisfaction of them was not high. Furthermore, it was found that there was no significant difference in attitude towards teaching between male and female school teachers; however, a significant difference was noticed in their job satisfaction.
