This study aims to investigate the dynamics of continuous change in schools. The study specifically investigated the mediating role job satisfaction on the relationship between trust in colleagues and continuous change behavior. Data from 699 teachers collected and analyzed through bootstrapping mediation analysis. The results show that job satisfaction significantly mediates the relationship between faculty trust in colleagues and continuous change behavior of public school teachers. The results suggest that teachers extend, modify or alter the existing instructional and/or curricular practices without any formal imperative to do so. As a result, investing in building trust based relationship and job satisfaction of teachers contributes to sustained improvement of instructional and curricular practices of the schools.
