The instruments used were the Leadership Practices Inventory (ILP) and Teacher Motivation Diagnostic Questionnaire (TMDQ). Correlation and descriptive analysis (one-way ANOVA) were used to analyze data. The results revealed that there is a significant correlation between the leadership practices and the level of teacher motivation. The results showed that the better the leadership practiced by the leader, the more the teachers scored on the levels of motivation. It was also found that there is a significant correlation between the leader’s gender and the level of teacher motivation. The results also indicated that there is a significant and positive correlation between the cycle where the teacher teaches and the level of motivation. Moreover, the results indicated that no significant difference existed between the demographic variables (age and level of education) and teacher motivation while they indicated that female teachers working in private schools are more motivated than those working in public schools. It was recommended that the principals should follow the five leadership practices. Principals should also integrate teachers’ demographic properties with continuous assessment and evaluation of teachers’ feelings to stay updated with the relationship between their teachers’ job motivation and those demographic properties UR - http://search.shamaa.org/FullRecord?ID=112031 ER -
