The teachers present at the teacher's lounge could be there for a variety of reasons, for example it could even me a meeting of the supporters of the school uniform! his sample is therefore possibly biased - there is no way of knowing that it represents the whole population. He chose it because it was convenient to him - and the answer is "a, convenience sampling"
