Abstracts in English, Zulu and Afrikaans / A qualitative study was conducted on the causes of teacher attrition from urban
schools in the Gauteng and Western Cape provinces of South Africa. Besides
identifying the causes of attrition, the study intended to determine what needs to
be changed to entice teachers who have left the profession to return. The rationale
of the study was founded on the teacher shortage in South Africa and the alarming
rate of teacher attrition from the profession, coupled with the growing number of
learners needing education. Albert Bandura’s Self-Efficacy Theory, with a
consideration of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, formed the conceptual framework
of the research. Fourteen participants, comprising seven teachers who have left
the profession from each province, were interviewed using semi-structured
interviews to inform the findings. From the data analysis, five factors were
identified as the main causes of attrition. Recommendations on what should be
done to encourage a return to the profession were based on the identified causes
of teacher attrition and input from the participants. / Kwenziwe ucwaningo lwe-qualitative ngezimbangela zokuncipha kothisha ezikoleni
zaseGauteng kanye naseNtshonalanga Kapa eNingizimu Afrika. Nangaphandle
kokubheka izimbangela zokuncipha kothisha, ucwaningo belunenhloso yokubheka
izinguquko ezidingekayo ukuhuha othisha abashiye iprofeshini ukubuyela ezikoleni.
Isizathu socwaningo bekuwukusweleka kothisha eNingizimu Afrika kanye nezinga
eliphezulu lokuncipha kwabo ezikoleni okuhambisana nenani elikhulayo labafundi
abadinga imfundo. Ithiyori ka-Albert Bandura ye-self-efficacy kanye ne-Maslow's
hierarcy of needs zibe wuhlaka lomqondo wocwaningo. Kwenziwa ama-interview
nababambiqhaza abayishumi nane, abebequka othisha abayisikhombisa asebeshiye
iprofeshini kwiprovinsi ngayinye ebalulwe ngenhla, ngokusebenzisa ama-semistructured
interview ukuthola imiphumela. Ngokulandela ulwazi oluhlaziyiwe,
kuphawulwe izinto ezinhlanu njengezimbangela ezinkulu zokuncipha kothisha.
Kwenziwe izincomo ngokuthi yini okumele kwenziwe ukukhuthaza othisha ukubuyela
kwiprofeshini ngokulandela izimbangela zokuncipha kothisha kanye nemibono evela
kulabo ababambe iqhaza. / Daar is ’n kwalitatiewe studie uitgevoer oor die oorsake van natuurlike poste-afname
van onderwysers in stedelike skole in die provinsies van Gauteng en die Wes-Kaap
in Suid-Afrika. Buiten om die oorsake van natuurlike poste-afname te identifiseer,
was die doel van die studie om te bepaal watter veranderinge nodig is om
onderwysers wat die beroep verlaat het, oor te haal om terug te keer. Die
beweegrede vir die studie was die tekort aan onderwysers in Suid-Afrika en die
skrikwekkende tempo van die natuurlike poste-afname van onderwysers, tesame met
die toenemende aantal leerders wat onderrig benodig. Albert Bandura se
selfdoeltreffendheidsteorie en Maslow se hiërargie van behoeftes het die
konseptuele raamwerk van die navorsing gevorm. Daar is onderhoude gevoer met ’n
totaal van 14 deelnemers, bestaande uit sewe onderwysers wat die beroep verlaat
het in elkeen van die bogenoemde provinsies. Halfgestruktureerde onderhoude is
gebruik om die bevindings mee te deel. Uit die dataontleding is daar vyf faktore
geïdentifiseer as die hoofoorsake van natuurlike poste-afname. Aanbevelings oor wat
gedoen kan word om ’n terugkeer na die beroep aan te moedig is gebaseer op die
geïdentifiseerde oorsake van natuurlike poste-afname en insette van die deelnemers. / Curriculum and Instructional Studies / M. Ed. (Curriculum Studies)
