The present research examined the impact of psychological ethical climate on teachers’ performance in government and private schools of Bahawalpur. In this study, the descriptive research design was used, and data were collected through two scales, such as the psychological ethical climate scale developed by Schwepker, Ferrell, and Ingram (1997) and the teachers’ job performance scale developed by Akhtar and Haider (2017). The simple random and convenient sampling techniques were used to select government ESEs and private school teachers and their principals to rate their performance. Total 280 questionnaires were distributed among teachers, and 60 questionnaires were provided to principals, and the response rate was 100% due to vigorous follow-up by the researchers. Researchers applied different statistical techniques to the collected data to get accurate results. This study revealed that both government and private teachers highly displayed a psychological ethical climate in their schools. The study results showed that psychological ethical climate has a statistically significant effect on teachers’ performance in private schools. At the same time, the effect was insignificant in government schools.
