There are 187 primary schools and community primary schools at Moulvibazar Sadar upazila. The upazila education officer and respective assistant upazila education officers are trying their best to ensure quality primary education. With their efforts, students' enrolment rate has increased and the rate of dropout has gone down. But the number of teachers in the schools is not adequate considering the number of students.

The education authorities should look into the matter and take necessary steps for the local schools to function smoothly.
