There are several surveys which sustain that there are no statistically significant differences between the two genders regarding job satisfaction of teachers under the influence of school leadership (Papapanagiotou & Theofilidis, 2008;Eres, 2011). On the other hand, a comparative test between 1480 male and female PE teachers who participated in a research in Finland, regarding DELIGIANNIDOU TZENI; ATHANAILIDIS IOANNIS; LAIOS ATHANASIOS; STAFYLA AMALIA…”
