About this data
Total number of male teachers in public and private secondary education institutions (ISCED 2 and 3).

This definition excludes educational personnel who have no active teaching duties (e.g. headmasters, headmistresses or principals who do not teach) and persons who work occasionally or in a voluntary capacity in educational institutions.
