ESTEVES-FERREIRA, Alberto Abrantes; SANTOS, Douglas Elias  and  RIGOLON, Rafael Gustavo. Comparative evaluation of the symptoms of burnout syndrome of teachers in public and private schools. Rev. Bras. Educ. [online]. 2014, vol.19, n.59, pp.987-1002. ISSN 1413-2478.  https://doi.org/10.1590/S1413-24782014000900009.

Currently, there are some practicing teachers who are unmotivated. Frequent among educators, the burnout syndrome is characterized by a loss of the sense of accomplishment at work and decreased productivity. In this context, the objective was to assess the presence of symptoms of burnout syndrome among professionals in public and private schools in Viçosa/MG, and to identify which group was more prone to develop it. The data does not quantify whether teachers have burnout syndrome or not, but it is possible to infer that teachers of public institutions have characteristics that make them more likely to manifest the syndrome, when compared to teachers in private education.
