Yup, Teaching in countries where you get the appreciation can surely be motivating to continue for more time.

From teachers prespective,
1) Environment - Teaching for initial 6 to 12 month period gives them a chance to make new friends and roam around in new places. Going back and adjusting to the new environment can be one of the reason.

2) Security - Not Job Security but security as a teacher to continue in the same profession also plays a vital role.

Schools extending contracts

1) Any new teacher will take time to mix and adjust with the students.
2) Cost advantage of having the same person as overall the schools don't have to search for different teachers.

Emotions play a very big role for either side.
