Some preliminary conclusions from the original data setsTeacher-related policies probably should be more strategically related to EFA

Effort devoted to short in-service courses is intense, needs evidence of effectiveness

A few key donors have potential for expanding evidence base and impact

Basic, comparable, data on spending, nature of programmes and impact needs to be developed on teacher-specific actions11/10/2012
