Abstract

This policy brief provides an analysis of teachers and teaching learning processes in two states of India. Data was collected from 88 schools in three clusters in Madyha Pradesh and Chhattisgarh (Dindori, Rewa and Rajnandgaon) using CREATE’s Community and School Survey (ComSS). This policy brief provides an analysis of that data and suggests some policy implications. While much progress and investment has been made in recent years, the analysis suggests that problems remain with teacher numbers, deployment and training.
