Regional Differences in Personal Affairs Systems’ Reassignments of Teachers Away from Schools

Abstract

Personal affairs systems of prefectures and ordinance-designated cities concerning assigning teachers away from schools were investigated. Results of a questionnaire survey show that about one third of the target authorities reassign teachers as teaching staff, another third as general administrative staff, and lastly on a case-by-case basis. Where teachers are reassigned to facilities under the jurisdiction of the prefectural governor, most of the target authorities assign them conventionally to some division on the editorial board and concurrently to the target division.
