Abstract: The aim of this study was to examine the impact of teaching levels on burnout among Iranian school teachers in rural areas. A total of 240 teachers participated in the study. Data was collected using the Maslach Burnout Inventory-Educators Survey (MBI-ES) and a Demographic Questionnaire. The results revealed that Iranian rural school teachers experienced moderate levels of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and personal accomplishment. This suggests that overall burnout among these teachers was at a moderate level. Additionally, the study found that high school teachers exhibited higher emotional exhaustion compared to middle school teachers. However, there were no significant differences across teaching levels regarding the three dimensions of burnout. These findings could help school administrators better address factors that influence teacher satisfaction and engagement.
