Abstract

This report is part of the multi-year EdTech-Hub-Led project (HLR 3) on the Impact of GIS-Supported Teacher Allocation in Sierra Leone where EdTech Hub and research partners Fab Inc and the Learning Generation Initiative are undertaking a series of research studies with the Sierra Leone Teaching Service Commission (TSC) to explore the most feasible approach to improving teacher allocation. The HLR 3 project aims to help government decision-makers by generating new evidence and providing insights on critical elements of teacher recruitment and deployment, such as teacher preferences and teacher mobility and retention patterns.
