India's Teacher Workforce Surpasses 10 Million, Yet Faces Challenges

Imagine India's teaching team grew bigger!

There are now over 10 million teachers, but not all schools are the same.

More women teach at the younger grades, but at the older grades, there are more men.

Schools have more teachers now, but the number of support staff has gone down.

The ratio of students to teachers has improved overall.

Some states need more teachers in certain grades to meet the guidelines.

Many teachers have good degrees, but fewer have professional training.

Some private schools provide less pay for teachers than government schools.
