Abstract Stake holders in education globally are certainly affected during this trying Covid-19 crisis. Students, parents, education administrators, teachers, and community members in general are still figuring out best ways to adopt and adapt themselves in this unanticipated Covid-19 era. Teachers most of all face a challenging task of planning and executing lessons through mediums that both they and students could mutually access via digital platforms like Google Meet, Zoom, Skype or Microsoft Teams Meet just to name a few. These are some of the common platforms utilised by Malaysian teachers as well. Very few see the importance of teacher motivation in relation to teacher productivity and a meaningful learning. This study explores the level of motivation amongst primary school teachers in conducting remote online learning in Putrajaya, Malaysia during the COVID-19 Pandemic. Data was collected through surveys from 272 teachers of various subjects in primary schools. From the data collected, the descriptive and inferential analysis was conducted. Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) version 23 is used to analyze the data. The findings of the study revealed that the level of intrinsic motivation amongst Primary School teachers in Putrajaya when conducting online teaching and learning during Covid-19 is high, while extrinsic motivation was found to be at a moderate level. The study concluded that teachers are very motivated intrinsically and are exceptionally very confident and earnest. However, teachers need to be further motivated with a higher income to compensate all the effort and work and hours they spent for the betterment of the students.
