  text: The link between formal education and the formation of national attachment
    is widely acknowledged. Yet, research on teachers’ national attachment is still
    relatively rare. Based on a comparative analysis of survey data obtained from
    281 Berlin and London state secondary school head teachers, this paper proposes
    a multivariate model in which notions of national identity, levels of national
    pride and levels of supranational attachment represent predictors of national
    attachment. The respective statistical analyses reveal striking cross‐national
    similarities in terms of the individual and joint explanatory impact of these
    predictors. Other findings concern correlations between different notions of Britishness/Germanness
    and levels of national attachment, the relationship between national and supranational
    attachment, and associations between national pride and national attachment.
