The Redeployment of Teachers in Guinea : Operational Management and Results

The report describes how Guinea carried out the redeployment of its teaching staff between 1992 and 1993, drawing attention to the social and political aspects. As a result of this experience, significant efficiencies were developed that led to increased enrollments in both urban and rural schools without increased costs. Further to the success of the first edition prepared in 1996, this second edition provides a more complete and comprehensive report on Guinea's experience. It includes additional, updated information, highlights issues related to management and communications, and brings to light the results obtained since the teacher redeployment process was completed.
