i. School heads and district leaders may continue to profile teachers according to relevant personal and professional characteristics so that support measures may be matched to actual teacher needs, particularly for those in more demanding career and life stages. ii. Schools may strengthen programs that preserve teachers’ work satisfaction, such as recognition of accomplishments, collegial support activities, and opportunities for meaningful participation in school improvement efforts, since professional fulfillment appeared to be a strong protective factor. iii. School administrators may provide differentiated support for teachers based on age, marital status, and years in teaching. Younger and less experienced teachers may be given mentoring and guidance in time management, while older teachers may be provided with more sustainable workload arrangements and wellness support. iv. Schools and the Schools Division Office may review the volume and scheduling of non-teaching tasks, reports, and deadlines in order to reduce unnecessary stress and allow teachers to focus more fully on instruction and preparation. v. Age-responsive stress management activities may be considered, particularly for teachers in the older age group, through wellness sessions, counseling access, and supportive task distribution that recognizes accumulated professional demands. vi. School leaders may strengthen organizational support systems by improving communication, clarifying expectations, providing encouragement during personal and professional challenges, and institutionalizing teacher wellness activities instead of relying only on informal support. vii. The proposed teacher well-being program may be https://journals.stecab.comStecab PublishingPage Journal of Mental Health and Psychology (JMHP), 1(1), 37-51, 2026 50 adopted, refined, and implemented by school administrators and education officials as a practical response to the work-life balance and job conditions revealed in the study. viii. Future researchers may conduct similar studies using larger samples, other school contexts, or qualitative and mixed methods approaches to examine more deeply how teachers experience work-life balance and job stress. They may also separate job demand indicators from job support indicators to generate a clearer explanation of their relationship. REFERENCES Adisa, T. A., Aiyenitaju, O., & Adekoya, O. D. (2022).

Given these findings, the study suggests that existing administrative support practices be sustained and further strengthened, particularly in leadership, mentoring, and resource provision. It may also be beneficial to continuously align supervisory practices with classroom needs to maintain and enhance teacher effectiveness. In addition, schools may consider promoting more structured and collaborative professional development activities that directly respond to teachers’ instructional needs and challenges. Future research may further explore these relationships using longitudinal or broader samples to validate long-term effects and examine other contextual factors that may influence teacher performance.

Based on the findings, several recommendations are proposed: 1. Strengthen Professional Development Programs. Schools should provide continuous training focused on differentiated instruction, classroom management, and inclusive education to help teachers better address diverse learner needs, which is a major source of stress. 2. Enhance Teacher Coping and Wellness Programs. Institutions should implement stress management and wellness initiatives, such as mental health support services, peer support groups, and resilience-building workshops, to sustain teachers’ effective coping mechanisms and prevent long-term burnout. Increase Student Participation and Autonomy. Schools should adopt approaches that give students more voice and choice in learning, such as collaborative learning, project-based activities, and participatory decision-making in class, to enhance motivation and classroom practices. 3. 4. Strengthen Positive Classroom Climate. Administrators and teachers should work together to foster a supportive, inclusive, and respectful classroom environment, reinforcing prosocial behavior while addressing behavioral concerns through structured interventions such as social-emotional learning (SEL) programs. 5. Conduct Further Research. Future studies may explore additional variables such as leadership styles, school culture, and student-related factors, and may use larger samples or mixed methods to better understand the complex relationships among stress, classroom climate, and student behavior. These recommendations aim to enhance teacher well-being, improve instructional quality, and promote better student outcomes, ultimately contributing to a more effective and resilient educational environment.
