ABSTRACT
This study was conducted to determine the extent to which selected factors
such as salaries, conditions of service, incentives, opportunities for promotion,
relationship with heads, supervisors, colleagues, teaching and learning materials
influence the retention of graduate teachers at senior high schools in the Ho
Municipality.
A sample of 154 graduate teachers was drawn from a population of 239,
representing about 65%. Proportionate stratified sampling method was used to
select the teachers using the schools as the basis for stratification. Data was
analysed using frequencies and percentages with the help of Statistical Package
for Service Solutions (SPSS).
Results of the study revealed among others that, graduate teachers were
not satisfied with their salary level, conditions of service, incentives and status in
society. Respondents were however, found to be satisfied with interpersonal
relationship with heads, supervisors as well as colleagues.
The study recommended that the Ministry of Education (MOE) and the
Ghana Education Service (GES) should improve the salaries and other conditions
of service for graduate teachers. The Ministry of Education should involve
teachers in the decision making process
