The professional commitment of the teachers is essentials for the survival strength, efficiency and success of the institution. A school may have excellent material resources-equipment, building, library and other facilities along with a curriculum appropriately adopted to suit the community needs, but if the teachers are indifferent to their responsibilities, the whole programme is likely to be ineffective and wasted. On the other hand professional commitment of the teachers is influenced by organization climate. So there has to be a humanistic approach to the teaching learning process. The main objectives of the topic are to find out the significant correlation and impact of organizational climate on professional commitment of the teachers of higher secondary schools. A sample size of 400 teachers of higher secondary schools were selected and taken up for the study. Organizational Climate Scale developed by Dr. Sanjyot Pethe , Sushama Chaudhari and Upinder Dhar and Professional Commitment Scale developed by Dr.Ravinder Kaur, Dr.Sarbjit Kaur Ranu and Mrs.Sarvjeet Kaur Brar were used for the study. It has been found that, organizational climate is significantly related with teachers professional commitment. There is a significant mean difference of teacher’s professional commitment of higher secondary schools teacher coming from good and average, good and poor organizational climate. But no significant mean difference of teacher’s professional commitment is found among teachers coming from average and poor organizational climate.
