Teachers are at the center of delivering high-quality education in any setting. Teachers in conflict-affected contexts need many of the same sources of support as other teachers, quality instruction, consistent pay and so on, while also requiring specific pedagogical, psychosocial, and administrative and logistical support.
This background research reviews the evidence on teachers in conflict-affected contexts in relation to major teacher management areas: planning, recruitment, deployment and teacher compensation.
Though focused specifically on conflict-affected and displacement settings, some of the considerations raised in this note can apply to teacher management more broadly in fragile settings.
This paper is part of a series on evidence for education system transformation.
