This study explores how primary school teachers in England define, understand and experience wellbeing, aiming to uncover factors influencing their wellbeing. Semi-structured interviews with eight primary teachers underwent analysis using Hybrid Thematic Analysis (HTA), which integrates inductive and deductive approaches to interpret raw data. This methodology facilitated cross-comparison between theory and data, enabling the identification of consistencies and discrepancies with existing knowledge and generating new insights from the collected data. Findings revealed four main themes: perception of being a teacher, understanding of wellbeing by teachers, components of teacher wellbeing, and perceived contributors to teacher wellbeing. The findings highlight diverse dimensions of teacher wellbeing, including commonly acknowledged aspects such as workload, as well as less highlighted factors such as teachers' personal lives. This study enriches our understanding of teacher wellbeing, offering insights into teachers' perspectives and informing future research and policies while adding a further nuance to existing frameworks.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48430,"journal":{"name":"Teaching and Teacher Education","volume":"159 ","pages":"Article 104989"},"PeriodicalIF":4.0,"publicationDate":"2025-03-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143561910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
