ABSTRACT
This study delves into how teacher's overall health affects the performance of their
students exploring the connection, between educator's mental and emotional well-being and
the success of their pupils. By examining a range of sources from psychology and education
this research investigates the link between teacher welfare and student accomplishments.
Through a blend of research data encompassing both qualitative studies and theoretical
academic results, socio-emotional growth, and engagement in the classroom. The survey
conducted at Lourdes National High School yielded insightful findings regarding the influence
of teachers' well-being on students' achievement: Most students rated the overall well-being of
suggests a generally favorable perception of the teachers' emotional and mental state among
the student body. Influence on Teaching Performance: Almost all surveyed students (over 92%)
believe that teachers' well-being directly affects their teaching performance. This high
percentage underscores the importance students place on the connection between a teacher's
well-being and their ability to effectively deliver instruction. Students' perceptions of their
academic achievement at Lourdes National High School were predominantly positive, with the
majority rating it as "Good" or "Excellent." This indicates a level of satisfaction with their
academic progress within the school environment. A significant majority of students (over 82%)
perceive a correlation between teachers' well-being and students' academic achievement. This
finding suggests that students recognize the impact of teachers' emotional and mental state on
their learning outcomes. Most of the students (over 85%) agree that their teacher's well-being

teachers' mental and emotional health could yield positive results for both teachers and
students. Continued monitoring and follow-up surveys could provide valuable insights into the
effectiveness of these initiatives and further inform strategies for enhancing the well-being of
both teachers and students within the school community. The results highlight the role of
promoting and sustaining teacher well-being to create educational environments that enhance
student learning outcomes. Furthermore, it discusses the implications for strategies and
Rationale
"Well-being" or " good health," which is frequently used synonymously with "happiness"
of spheres of life. It explores the areas of physical health, mental and emotional balance, social
connectedness, and a sense of purpose in addition to going beyond simple material prosperity
or success. The pursuit of well-being has gained importance in today's fast-paced and
legislators alike.
“Teachers' emotion regulation skills and life satisfaction were associated with students'
well-being: when teachers used cognitive reappraisal, students reported low emotional
distress; when teachers used expressive suppression, students reported a less positive
outlook and peers reported few prosocial behaviors; teachers' life satisfaction was associated
with high levels of prosocial behavior. Effects on the trajectory of student well-being were not

Education's International Affairs Office. “Teachers' workloads may obstruct their ability to be
happy and productive, or any combination of the two. Thus, workload refers to the average
number of hours worked per week and the number of preparations for teaching” Tan (2023).

These additional workloads add stress and problems to teachers. That’s why they should also
think and consider the emotional and physical well-being of the teachers because it is through
these educators who discipline and teach those students who oversee the future.
Our research has noticed that programs, organizations, and actions are absent in this

on general trends and associations, often neglecting the specific contextual factors that may
moderate or mediate this relationship. There is a gap in understanding how diverse school
environments, varying teacher characteristics, and unique student populations can impact the
students' achievement at Lourdes National High School. Findings suggest that the mental and
emotional health of educators plays a crucial role in shaping the academic success of their
educational outcomes and overall school performance. There is an urgent need to pursue this
research through its direct impact on student success, teacher retention, and addressing the
global well-being crisis in education. Through Critical Discourse Analysis, this study aims to
student outcomes.
Theoretical Background
Students’ Behavior and Learning” (Pavlov). Behaviorism has practical implications for
classroom management, instructional design, and student learning. Teachers can use
reinforce desired behaviors, thereby promoting a positive learning environment and facilitating
student success. However, behaviorism has also faced criticism for its focus on observable
behaviors at the expense of internal cognitive processes and individual differences. Despite
We use this theory because we want to connect on how the behavior of a person can
greatly affect other people. Circling back to our topic, it shares the similarities in how a
teacher's well-being can influence his/her students. Of course, it is already a given that it will
also affect the student's performance. Additionally, our behaviors and well-being mirror our way
of conversing with other people, but this specific study focuses on the relationship between a
teacher and a student. That’s why we need to provide a better and more positive learning
environment and provide more helping programs not only for the teacher’s well-being but also
Teacher well-being is a crucial factor that affects student learning and achievement.
Research suggests that teacher well-being, which includes job satisfaction, emotional well-
being, and mental health, has a small but significant influence on student learning and
teacher quality. Teacher engagement, which refers to the degree to which teachers are
involved and motivated in their work, is positively associated with student achievement.
According to Thornberg, R., Forsberg, C., Hammar Chiriac, E., & Bjereld, Y. (2022), said
that teacher-student relationships, which are characterized by mutual respect, trust, and
positive interactions, are also important for student achievement. Finally, teacher quality, which

the methodology used in studies examining the relationship between teacher well-being and
Based on the journal of Farhah, I., Irsyad, & Saleh, A. Y., & Safitri, S. (2021), the
teacher's well-being will decrease when work starts to feel unpleasant nor unrewarding. This
happens when teachers begin to think that their duties are no longer in line with their
expectations as teachers. It is said that the teaching profession is a job that demands emotion
and cognition. This is because the teacher must play an active role in responding to the needs
of students inside and outside the classroom. Also, teachers must be able to work
professionally in controlling the emotions they feel during the teaching and learning process or
while in school. Meanwhile, it is also said that emotion is an inseparable part of every
individual. Emotions can impact teacher behavior inside and outside the classroom and are
closely related to the health and well-being of teachers. One research shows that the teaching
profession stands at the second rank out of 25 jobs with the highest physical and emotional
stress.
Meidelina, O., Saleh, A. Y., Cathlin, C. A., & Winesa, S. A. (2023) stated, that well-being
individual’s potential and functioning at an optimal level. Several studies on well-being also
focus on the negative aspects of well-being, therefore analyzing constructs such as burnout,
stress, and emotional exhaustion as well-being indicators. Teacher well-being can also be
understood as diverse and fluid regarding to an individual, family, and community beliefs,
values, experiences, culture, opportunities, and contexts across time and change. There are
several factors that can contribute to teacher well-being, such as resilience and self-efficacy,
In summary, teacher well-being is an important factor that affects student learning and
achievement. While the relationship between teacher well-being and student achievement is
complex and mediated by several factors, EPs can play a critical role in supporting teacher
Teachers have a crucial role in education that goes well beyond just teaching students
material; they are the creators of futures, the guardians of potential, and the cornerstone of
academic achievement. Among the many elements that make up a healthy educational
ecosystem, teachers' well-being stands out as a key component that significantly influences
students' academic progress. This research report summary explores the complex link that
exists between the academic success of students and the well-being of teachers, explaining its

Similarly, this study noted by Zembylas, “Emotions are Closely Intertwined with the
Lives of Teachers” (Zembylas, 2005, p. 468), made us realize how important it is to always be
aware of the well-being of not only our teachers but also to everyone. Teachers encounter a
spectrum of emotions, both positive and negative, in their daily experiences: they feel joy when
a struggling student grasps a challenging concept; satisfaction when students provide correct
answers; delight when witnessing student collaboration; frustration with students' lack of effort;

significant effect size of .70 according to Hattie's meta-analyses in 2017, which helped us
navigate how teachers’ well-being can affect and enhance student performance. Recent
findings by Wisniewski et al. in 2020, drawing from a meta-analysis of 435 studies, underscore
the potency of high-information feedback (i.e., feedback that includes guidance on self-
regulation during the learning process), with an effect size of .99. Nonetheless, the precise
mechanisms through which students leverage this feedback to enhance their learning remain
ambiguous. Following receipt of teacher feedback, students may react in diverse manners that
Notably, there is often a significant disjunction between students' and teachers' perceptions
regarding both the quantity and quality of teacher feedback, as documented in studies by

Understanding this intricate interplay is not only essential for fostering a supportive educational
environment but also for optimizing student achievement and well-being. Thus, delving into the
nexus of teachers' well-being and students' achievement at Lourdes National High School

Students. There are a lot of advantages for students in this curriculum. According to research,

Parents. Supportive parents contribute significantly to their children's education. They have a
stake in making sure their kids get excellent education and assistance at school. Parents who
understand the relationship between teacher well-being and student accomplishment may fight
for policies and practices that emphasize teacher welfare, which will eventually improve their
their teachers. However, the demanding nature of teaching can have a detrimental effect on
their health, which could then affect how effective they are in the classroom. Acknowledging
the significance of teacher well-being, educators may put strategies into place that support
work-life balance, self-care, and a healthy school climate, all of which are ultimately
instruction and learning. Administrators can create policies and initiatives that promote
professional development and teacher support by taking into account the relationship between
teachers' well-being and student accomplishment. Through the cultivation of a positive school
climate, administrators may improve employee satisfaction, retention rates, and ultimately,
academic achievement.
Future Researchers. This study contributes to the existing body of research on teacher well-
being and student achievement, providing valuable insights for future researchers. It opens
avenues for further exploration into the mechanisms underlying the relationship between
teacher well-being and student outcomes, as well as the effectiveness of interventions aimed
at improving teacher well-being. Future research in this area can inform evidence-based
practices and policies to promote positive educational outcomes for all stakeholders.
