“…In comparison to the other studies reviewed in the paper, the results of the LIZDA research reveal some similar challenges what novice teachers face in Latvia: lack or limited availability of mentoring (Spencer et al, 2018;Paula, & Grinfelde, 2018;Zhukova et al, 2018), difficulties in communication, problems with discipline in a classroom, need for emotional and psychological support (Mukamurera et al, 2019;Spencer et al, 2018), cooperation with colleagues (Bakieva et al, 2019), establishing teacher's authority and self-positioning as a teacher (Paula, & Grinfelde, 2018;Hauksdottir et al, 2018), unexpected workload on a daily basis (Paula, & Grinfelde, 2018;Mukamurera et al, 2019), stress (Antoniou et al, 2020;Bar-Tal et al, 2020). Apart from the professional support what novice teacher receive from the schools and their colleagues, societal and parental help and understanding is expected (Antoniou et al, 2020).…”

“…They concluded that the specific stress factors for teachers were favouritism of government and school administration, time pressure and pupils' character, pupils' improvement, resources and equipment, support from parents and society (Antoniou et al, 2020). Another study has focused on factors of job satisfaction among second-career teachers in their initial period at school; the authors concluded that availability of support was the most powerful predictor of high job satisfaction, and experience acquired before teaching career provided a repertoire of helpful strategies, thus improving ability to cope with stressful experiences (Bar-Tal, Chamo, Ram, Snapir, & Gilat, 2020). In their research, Bettini and Park (2017) have investigated novices' teaching experiences in high-poverty schools.…”

This is reflected in more recent studies, which have defined career change teachers in broader terms as people over the age of 25 who have acquired significant life experience from previous occupations allowing them to bring assets such as maturity in age and professional expertise (Bar-Tal et al, 2020 ).…”

“…Since then, authors (Anthony & Ord, 2008;Hunter-Johnson, 2015) have continued to use the term second-career teacher. It is assumed that subsequent researchers (Bar-Tal et al, 2020) continued to use the term to build on this research, conveniently making research accessible for future researchers. In its broadest sense, SCT refers to a teacher who has at least one prior occupation and teaching as a second, third, fourth occupation, and so on.…”

“…SCT transitions include challenges that result in negative emotions (Bar-Tal et al, 2020;Castro & Bauml, 2009;Crosswell & Beutel, 2017;Peter et al, 2011;Tigchelaar et al, 2008; and challenges to the transfer of prior experiences to the teaching profession (Anderson et al, 2014;Anthony & Ord, 2008;Priyadharshini & Robinson-Pant, 2003;Raggl & Troman, 2008;Wilkins, 2015). For example, when SCTs expect to transfer their prior experience to their new roles, they experience feelings of betrayal and disillusion when the encountered teaching realities differ from their expectations (Peter et al, 2011).…”
