| Summary: | Special education leadership is an aspect of comprehensive management related to special education operations that includes knowledge, leadership style and also the welfare of teachers and students. Good leadership for a special education program should implement the process of planning, organizing, directing and controlling the members of the organization as well as using all organizational resources to achieve specific goals for special education.

This quantitative study was conducted to examine the single predictor of headmasters leadership and teacher workload on job satisfaction of teachers of special education integration program (PPKI) in the state of Johor Malaysia. A total of 400 respondents were involved in answering the questionnaire and the findings were analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) approach with AMOS 21 software. The results found that these two single predictors recorded high effect size values on teacher job satisfaction. This proves that headmaster leadership and teacher workload play a significant role on the job satisfaction of special education teachers.
