School teachers are the major human resource in the education sector because they conduct and implement the instructional process in classrooms, and the quality of an education system cannot exceed the quality of its teacher (Barber & Mourshed, 2007). The aim of this study was to determine strategies used by school administrators to deal with matters relating to the placement and transfer of teachers in Sabah and Sarawak. The study also attempted to gauge teachers‘ competency level and their various responsibilities in the two states concerned, which had to address the issue of having a high number of under-enrolled schools in remote areas and low quality schools.
