Abstract
Education is directly linked with the development of a country in which teachers are an
important facet for a number of reasons. They are the people who educate the youth of the
society who in turn become the leaders of the next generation. The current study was
designed to examine the relationship between teacher appraisal and teacher morale in
secondary school teachers of Lahore, Pakistan. The study was quantitative in nature and
survey research design was used. The sample of the study consisted of 288 private secondary
school teachers selected through census sampling. Two questionnaires (one for each variable)
were adapted for data collection from the participants. SPSS analysis indicated a positive and
significant relationship between effect of teacher appraisal with teacher morale. Inferential
statistics revealed that teacher appraisal was a strong predictor of teacher morale. It was
further determined that financial benefits and teaching workload, were the major causes of
low morale. It was recommended that school principals and administrators should conduct
fair appraisal of teachers whose purpose should be the professional development of teachers
rather than creating a threat to job security for teachers.
