STEDI Survey Results
● Principals’ access to teacher absence monitoring technology (i.e., Substitute management system) appears to result in lower teacher absenteeism – nearly 14% difference.
● When principal performance reviews are associated with their teachers’ attendance, teacher absence is significantly low – 4.0 %.
● Teacher incentives NOT to be absent seem to positively influence teacher attendance (i.e., low absence rate – 4.5%)
