The present study aims to determine the motivation of kinder garden, primary and secondary teachers in the city of Vigo. The sample consists of 392 teachers (111 men and 281 women) with an average age of 45.20 years and an average of 19.86 working years. The instrument tool used in the research was The Work Task Motivation Scale for Teachers (Fernet, Senecal, Guay, Marsh, & Dowson, 2008), based on the Self-Determination Theory.

Results show low scores on in a motivation demotivation in the 6 tasks set, which means that teachers do not have suffer a motivation lack of motivation. The tasks in which teachers are intrinsically motivated are teaching and class preparing. Otherwise, while low values are observed in introjected regulation when performing administrative tasks , complementary tasks or when evaluating students. This means that these three actions are performed, not because they are motivating in by themselves, but in order to avoid guilt or anxiety or to promote self-esteem.
