Description:	As countries in Sub-Saharan Africa expand access to primary education, the remaining out-of-school children are often in hard-to-reach rural areas. Provision of educational services for these children presents a series of problems, in particular, related to the deployment and management of teachers in rural schools. To examine the issues, representatives from six countries—Lesotho, Malawi, Mozambique, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zambia—came together for a workshop on “Policy, Planning, and Management of Rural Primary School Teachers,” which was held in Lesotho in May 2005. Building on national reports prepared by each country, this workshop identified the main challenges in teacher provision as being in the areas of teacher deployment, teacher utilization, and teacher management. The workshop then examined the viable policy options for addressing the challenges in each of those areas.
