The importance of an explicit, shared school vision for teacher commitment

Year: 2023

Type: article

Abstract: This study investigated the relationship of different explicit school visions and the presence of a shared school vision among teachers with teachers’ personal commitment to their work. Multilevel analyses of four types of schools show that teachers in schools with an explicit school vision more strongly share the school vision and this shared vision is positively related to their affective and normative commitment. The practical implications of this are discussed.
