Abstract
Recent surveys have shown that between 20 per cent to 40 per cent of teachers experience considerable stress when working in schools. Following a summary of research into the sources and correlates of reported teacher stress, this paper proposes a definition and a model of work-related stress in school that incorporates current concepts and research findings. Examples of tactics and strategies for coping with and reducing the build-up of environmental stressors are developed from the model. These aim to provide pointers for the multi-level management of stress throughout schools.Keywords
