Time to teach. Uganda

The Time to Teach study seeks to support the ministry in its efforts to strengthen teachers’ role in the school in order to increase their time on task. Its primary objective is to identify factors affecting the various dimensions of primary school teacher attendance and to use this evidence to inform the design and implementation of teacher policies. Specifically, the study looks at four distinct dimensions of teacher attendance: being in school, being punctual (i.e. not arriving late/leaving early), being in the classroom (while in school), and spending sufficient time on task (while in the classroom).
