The findings have revealed that majority of teachers had negative attitude up on the three motivation practices and given the opportunity (pull factors) they would not hesitate to move on to green pasture as it had observed that low compensation packages and poor work environment influence high teachers’ turnover while poor training practices in particular could not contribute much into teachers turnover but it might have provide teachers with poor performance .The study concluded that teachers are important on imparting children with knowledge and skills for future. They are able to perform their work efficiently and effectively if well motivated. Different to that they may end up with poor performance and turnover.
