Abstract
This policy brief presents findings of a study that examines adequacy of teachers for teaching mathmatics, English, and science at the secondary level in Sri Lanka, at the national level and across provinces and different school categories. Teacher cadres for each school in Sri Lanka are determined according to guidelines detailed by the education ministry. These guidelines take into account the number of classes in the school, and the medium through which these are taught. We determine teacher surpluses and shortages by comparing the available cadre with this recommended cadre. In addition to analyzing overall teacher quality commonly used in the literature-subject-level qualifacations and teaching experience.
