Summary: | The effective management of
Indonesia's teaching force is of crucial importance to
the development of the country's educational system.
The study aimed to investigate the policies and practices
governing teacher employment and deployment in primary and
junior secondary schools. The major issues investigated
included the distribution of teachers, the staffing of
remote schools, teachers' workloads, the overall supply
of teachers, teacher remuneration and teacher quality. A
highly participatory case-study approach was used and
included a field survey of 385 schools (276 primaries, 70
junior secondary and 39 senior secondary) in 12 sampled
districts/municipalities. In addition, a two-day workshop,
involving representatives from all participating districts,
was held to analyze the survey results and to determine
policy implications. |
