Abstract	Teacher turnover continues to be a problem in various private secondary schools in rural Tanzania, impacting students' academic performance in the national standardized examinations every year. This qualitative exploratory case study used secondary data to examine factors influencing the Problem in rural Tanzania's private secondary schools. Three themes emerged from the study. The first theme is the primary/core causes of teacher turnover in various private secondary schools across the country; the second theme is the perception of teaching in the region. The last theme concerns challenges due to the regional location of private schools. The first theme, the primary/core factors, are the factors that significantly influence or trigger teacher turnover in various private secondary schools in rural areas. The second theme concerns factors that help to determine whether teachers move away or stay as they process available information about their situations. The third themes are neutral factors that depend on other factors to influence teachers' decisions to stay or leave. Chapter five of this study addressed the study's aim by proposing solutions, describing implementation procedures, and discussing the study's practical, research-related, and leadership-related implications. The recommendations are developing problem awareness, gathering relevant information about a problem, identifying alternative solutions, selecting appropriate solutions, implementing them, and evaluating them.
