Abstract
It has been pointed out in recent years that a personnel change may negatively affect teachers.The purpose of this research is to clarify the aspect of “difficulty after personnel change, ” which is considered to be one of the negative influences. In addition, this study focuses on the first personnel change.It is said that the influence of the change depends on the length of the career, and that the first change has the greatest influence. However, no previous research has focused on this aspect.Therefore, this study includes an interview survey with 10 junior high school teachers who experienced their first personnel change within 3 years.Four categories were generated as a result of the qualitative analysis.While “Difficulty in dealing with differences in the characteristics of stakeholders” and “Difficulty in dealing with differences in the way of work” have been pointed out in previous research, this study highlights the two new aspects of “Difficulty concerning colleagues’ scrutiny” and “Difficulty concerning the deviation of beliefs” by focusing on the first personnel change.
