Resumen: The present study investigates how teachers’ motivation relates to burnout and engagement, teaching style and need satisfaction at work. A total of 584 secondary teachers completed validated questionnaires. Four profiles were retained in the cluster analysis. Results showed that teachers who were high on autonomous motivation displayed the most optimal pattern of outcomes, whereas teachers who were high on amotivation showed the opposite pattern. Teachers who were high on controlled motivation were engaged in their jobs, yet they had a greater risk of burnout and of establishing an ego climate. Implications for educational policy and practice are discussed.
