The COVID-19 pandemic affected everyone and almost all industries across the world including the educational system. The impact of the pandemic on students was given attention in several research. However, its negative effects on the teacher's and school administrators' well-being are not yet fully analyzed and understood. Thus, in this research, the Pagdadala model was used to understand the impact of the pandemic on teachers' and administrators' well-being. The data gathered from 244 participants were analyzed using thematic analysis by Braun and Clarke (2006). Following their recommended six phases of data analysis from familiarizing with data, generating initial code, looking for, reviewing and naming the themes, and coming up with the final results, it showed that the Dinadala (Burdens) of the burden bearers were grouped into health, work, financial, self, and family themes. The manner in which the burden bearers handle the identified burdens or the Pagdadala (Burden Bearing) was themed into personality development, selfcare, spiritual, community protocols, and other possible resources. Last, the source of strength of the burden bearers or the Patutunguhan (Destination) were grouped into family, spirituality, society, self, and work themes. The results of this research can be utilized as a guide in identifying appropriate interventions to improve the well-being of teachers and administrators and address the concerns that emerged because of the pandemic.

RESULTS: Stress and burnout continue to be high for teachers, with 72% of teachers feeling very or extremely stressed, and 57% feel very or extremely burned out. Many teachers struggled to have a satisfactory work-family balance (37% never or almost never; 20% only has sometimes).

Research Square (Research Square), 2022

Background: Teachers are very often reported to be at higher risk for co-occurring mental disorders than other professional categories. Aim of this study was to assess well-being perception of school teachers and the indirect psychological effects of the COVID-19 emergency. Methods: We collected data in April 2021, during COVID-19 lockdown from 838 teachers at public schools. Participants reported their perception of quality of life, by lling out a battery of psychological questionnaires through a multimedia platform. Results: Having a family member with COVID in the last month increases anxiety (BAI, p<0.05), reduces the perception of physical health (PWBI, p<0.05) and vitality (PWBI, p<0.05). In particular, anxiety (BAI, p<0.001), depression (BDI-II, p<0.03) and stress-related insomnia (FIRST, p<0.000) increased signi cantly in women. In the male population, on the contrary, evaluation of well-being showed an increase in health perception (p<0.001) and vitality (p<0.001), also con rmed in the total score (p<0.001). Conclusions: The psychological di culties of school teachers during COVID-19 underline the need to invest in prevention programs and promotion of well-being in this professional category, as the school remains the environment that allows teachers to provide structured learning opportunities to students.
