Number of Teachers by Gender, Academic Qualification, Professional Qualification, Classes Taught, School Category and School Management in Chandigarh District of Chandigarh (UDISE plus) during 2019-20

The UDISE+ 2019–20 dataset for Chandigarh reports the number of school teachers by gender; their academic and professional/training qualification; the classes they teach (primary through higher-secondary); the school category; and the type of school management.

About Dataset

The dataset for Chandigarh (2019–20) offers a detailed breakdown of the teaching workforce across all recognised schools in the district/UT. For each school (or aggregated at district-level), it includes the number of teachers disaggregated by gender; their academic qualifications; their professional or teacher-training qualifications; the classes or levels they teach (from primary up to higher secondary where applicable); the school category; and the type of school management (government, private, aided, etc.). This allows for comprehensive analysis of teacher deployment and distribution — such as gender balance, qualification/training levels, class-level teaching coverage, and differences across school types and management regimes — which can inform assessments of educational equity, resource allocation, capacity planning, and policy evaluation in Chandigarh.

Purpose of Dataset

This dataset provides a basis to analyse teacher distribution, qualification levels, teaching-coverage by class levels, gender balance among teachers, and variation across school types and management structures in Chandigarh (Union Territory) for the academic year 2019–20 under UDISE+.
