Problems Faced by External School Monitors during School Monitoring in Punjab
The main aim of this study was to identify the external monitors' problems and their influence on their performance in monitoring the elementary schools. The research was a sequential explanatory mixed method. All Monitoring and Evaluation Assistants (MEAs) (male and female) working as external monitors in Punjab were the study population. Firstly, districts were randomly selected, and then 4 MEAs from each sampled section were purposively selected. A self-developed questionnaire on the five-point Likert scale and a semi-structured interview were used as study instruments. The qualitative data were coded, themes were developed, and descriptive interpretation was carried out. It is found that external monitors have a burden of work, a lack of conveyance and inspection allowance, and a budget for stationery. They faced political interference and were not satisfied with the training. Consequently, the lack of facilities influences their performance. To improve their performance, these problems may be solved.
