ABSTRACT: This study investigated the Organizational climate and teachers job per-formance in public secondary schools in Abia state, Nigeria. Two research questions and two null hypotheses guided the study. Ex-post facto descrip-tive survey design was employed in the study. Proportionate sampling technique was used to determine a sample size of 609 respondents for the study. A structured questionnaire titled “Organizational Climate on Teachers Job Performance Questionnaire (OCTJPQ)” built on 4-point rating scale was used for data collection. The face validity of the instrument was established by three experts, two from Educational Management and one from Measurement and Evaluation in Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike. Reliability of the instrument was determined with Cronbach alpha technique which gave a value of 0.84 for the internal consistency. Data collected analyzed with mean and standard deviation for the research questions while null hypotheses were tested with t-test statistic tool at 0.05 level of significance. Findings among others showed that open organization climate influences teachers’ job performance to a low extent, and there was no significant difference between the mean scores responses Principals and teachers on the two null hypotheses.
