The gravitational centre in this classroom, despite all kinds of technological developments, remains to be teacher who, unlike an ordinary worker, acts as a master craftsman, an artist, a strategist and a powerful motivator. Teachers especially at secondary level have to deal with the growing generation of the society who is confronted with many physical, mental, emotional, social problems. That’s why it is very important to know the emotional intelligence of secondary school teachers. For this purpose the investigator uses the Emotional Intelligence Scale constructed by Hyde, Pethe & Dhar (2002). To analyze and interpret the data mean, S.D. and t- test were used between the different demographic variables. There is interesting result drawn from this study that male teachers are dominating female teachers at secondary level on the basis of their emotionally intelligence. It is also found that locality does not influence the emotional intelligence of secondary school teacher. The experienced teachers are more emotionally competent than in-experienced teachers.
