Descriptive Survey Method has been adopted to collect the required data from the Principals of the Colleges of Education. In line with Stratified Random Sampling Technique, 50 Principals of Colleges of Education from three districts of Tamilnadu state have been chosen for the study. Burnout Inventory for Teachers (Balasubramanian and Abilash Babu, 2009) was used to collect the required data from the sample chosen with regard to Burnout scores. The sample is comprised of male and female Principals with the age range between 30+ and 50 and above working in rural and urban areas. Descriptive, differential and correlation studies have been adopted to analyze the data. It is found that there is significant difference at 0.05 level between the means on the scores of Depersonalization of the Principals of Colleges of Education located at rural and urban areas. The mean value of the Principals of the urban area has been found to be greater than that of the those of the rural area. Hence, it is concluded that locality of the college has certain influence on the Depersonalization of the Principals. It is also found that there is no significant difference between the means of the scores of the Principals of Colleges of Education on various dimensions of their Burnout irrespective of their sex and marital status as well as the locality and type of college of education. Hence, it is concluded that sex and marital status of the Principals and the location and type of the colleges have no significant influence on the different dimension of Burnout. It is also found that there is significant and positive correlation at 0.01 level among the scores of various components of Burnout of the Principals of Colleges of Education viz. Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization, Reduced Personal Accomplishment and the Burnout total score. Hence, it is concluded that there has been significant and positive correlation among the various components of Burnout of the Principals of Colleges of Education. It means that the sense of wearing out, the emotional separation from the clients and the feeling of not achieving the set goals among the Principals are mutually influencing the other. Higher in one component of Burnout will result higher in other components also.
An attempt was made to study the distribution of various dimentions of Burnout among the Principals of the Colleges of Education besides finding out whether there is any significant difference among their Burnout with respect to their sex and marital status and the location and type of the institutions. It is also aimed at studying whether there is any significant relationship between the different components of Burnout and personality traits in addition to establishing whether there is any significant inter-relationship among the different components of Burnout. Survey method of research was attempted to collect the required data by taking 50 principals of Colleges of Education by stratified random sampling method. The study concludes that locality of the college has certain influence on the Depersonalization of the Principals; sex and marital status of the principals and the location and type of the colleges have no significant influence on the different dimension of burnout; higher the Principal being negative, callous, cynical, cold and distant attitude towards work besides having the feeling of insensitivity, impersonal response with other, doubts, less interested, less enthusiastic and not bothered, lesser will be his intelligence, abstract thinking and brightness; by and large, there is no relationship between his Personality Traits and his Burnout; those Principals who are less intelligent and having less concrete thinking and sober, prudent, serious and taciturn are more of negative, callous, cynical, cold and distant attitude towards work, feeling of insensitivity, impersonal response, doubt, less interested, less enthusiastic and not be bothered; those who are more of being venturesome, socially bold, uninhibited & spontaneous are noted for their being negative, callous, cynical, etc.; those who are more of controlled, socially precise and following self-image are more of being depersonalized and negative self-evaluation, feeling of incompetence, lack of confidence, selfrealization and exhilaration with regard to one’s work; most of the Personality Traits of the Principals do not influence their nature of being Burnout.

Teachers who are the nation builders in the achievement of national and educational goals in the country feel that they are overloaded with work especially primary teachers. They are exposed to larger classes of students but have very limited facilities. Most teachers are exposed to prolonged stress which eventually culminates into burnout. Recent research has shown that teachers, along with servicemen, social workers, and linguists, are the most affected by rising stress in their respective work environments. Teaching as a profession is progressively becoming a stressful occupation (Hepburn & Brown, 2001). It has been reported that teacher stress affects the learning environment and ultimately prevents achievement of the teacher " s educational goals. This leads to disinterest, negligence, bitterness, and absenteeism among teachers, and can result in teachers leaving the profession (Guglielmi & Tatrow, 1998). According to Shinn (1982) and Katzell, Korman, and Levine (1971), teachers are three times more likely to quit their jobs and even more likely to want to quit their jobs than are similarly trained professionals. Burnout is the emotional, mental, and physical exhaustion that comes about from job related stress and roughly describes any negative responses by teachers to work-related stress (Blasé, 1982). Burnout is the end state of " burning out " which is the gradual attrition of important technical, psychological, and social resources. Fruedenberger was first person investigated burnout in the 1970s to address the collateral affects of stress-related decomposition among social service workers such as teachers, social workers, policemen, health care professionals, and therapists. Burnout represents a syndrome of affective and physiological responses to the chronic emotional strain of service delivery to others in need (Maslach, 1999) and is defined by three distinct but empirically related factors: Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization, and reduced Personal Accomplishment (Byrne, 1999; Maslach & Jackson, 1986). Emotional Exhaustion is characterized by psychological depletion caused by the constant demands of caring for others. This factor can include physiological illness, chronic fatigue, and decreased stress resistance. Teachers exhibit emotional exhaustion when they feel they can no longer extend themselves to students as they once did (Evers, Brouwers, & Tomic, 2002; Maslach & Jackson, 1986; Schwab & Iwaniki, 1982). Depersonalization refers to negative disassociation, indifference to students as individuals, and a detached attitude toward individual student needs (Maslach & Jackson, 1986).
