Third All India Educational Survey Teachers

Abstract

From Forward: The First and Second All India Educational Survey collected limited information about the teacher. In the Third All India Educational Survey detailed information was collected about the school teacher covering, among other things, qualifications, experience, emoluments, professional and other specialised training, competence and utilisation, teacher participation in professional growth like summer institutes, seminars and workshops, tenure of appointment and mobility of teachers from the teaching profession. Although, from time to time, surveys have been made to collect information about primary, middle and secondary school teachers, this is the first time that a comprehensive census type survey of teachers on an all India basis has been attempted.
