The present study aimed to assess the level of passion and burnout among teachers of special education system
in Peshawar. For this purpose, a sample of eighty-one respondents comprising two comparative groups, was
selected through a purposive sampling technique. One group consisted of male and female teachers with age
range of 25 to 55 years (M= 31.34 and SD= 8.48), selected from special education schools located in Peshawar
(n=41), whereas the other group included male and female teachers from different conventional educational
institutes of Peshawar (n=40), having age range of 25 to 55 years (M= 26.22 and SD= 4.42). The two groups
were matched in terms of demographic variables, including age, gender, and socioeconomic status by using a
demographic information sheet devised by the researchers. The Passion Scale (Vallerand et al., 2003) and
Maslach Burnout Inventory-Educators Survey (Ma sla ch, Jak son & Leiter,1996) were administered to
measure the extent of passion and burnout among the participants. The results showed that the two groups were
significantly different on harmonious passion (t =2.3, p<.001) and burnout (t =2.1, p<.001). Moreover,
obsessive passion had a strong positive correlation with burnout (γ=.28, p<.01). It is therefore concluded that
the teachers of special education who scored higher on obsessive passion had higher level of burnout and vice
versa. The study has implications for teachers working in special education institutes in Pakistan to help them
avoid burnout and perform their job with passion through effective training programs
