Abstract
This study looks at the stress experienced by teachers involved in a school merger. Ten teachers were interviewed three times, twice prior to the merger, and once again after the merger had taken place. The study confirms the stressful nature of school mergers for those involved. The most acute stress appeared to occur in the period running up to and including the interviews for a post at the new school.Keywords
