Since 1914 education in Bhutan has progressed by leaps and bounds, however, the quality of education system has alwaysbeen a matter of inquiry and onfrequent question. Hence, there havebeen numerous efforts to help improvethequality of education in the last decade. Also deriving inspiration from the His Majesty the King, Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck on the efforts to revamping education system in the country, the study was undertaken to understand the quality of education and educational services in the country through a case study in Wangduephodrang District. The study is an empirical quantitative analysis. It used the SERVQUAL instrument. The data was collected through randomly distributed questionnaires through a convenience sampling method. Sample size of 334 was determined using an online survey monkey tool.The data was analysedusing excel to obtain descriptive statistics and individual value data plot. Paired two sample t-test was also performed to compare means and to see the significant difference between expectation and perception of the services of each of the items and dimensions as a whole at hypothesized mean difference of zero,alpha value of 0.05. The average gap score is at -0.4 which means that the expectations have not been met and quality of education services is unsatisfactory. Similarly, differencesbetween the means of overall average and all the five dimensions are found to be statistically significant. Interesting to note that ASSURANCE and TANGIBILITY requireimmediate attention. Some of the key findings are lack of adequate teachers and staff, lack of educational and instructional materials,need to foster and widen student-teacher bondsand need to cultivate a sense of assurance.

It is different from Finland. The government and people realize that a strong commitment to build and develop a national education system is a key determinant of the success of the state to maintain its survival as a small, resource-limited nation living in extreme and less friendly conditions. The development of the nation and nation stands on the pillars of innovation-based education and research and is fully supported by all components of the nation.

This study aims to understand the extent of the Teacher Competency Test results which include: (a) pedagogical competencies, (b) personality competencies for improving the quality of education in Cilangla State Elementary School, Gandasoli State Elementary School, and Babakan Pamoyanan Elementary School in Sukabumi District. This research uses a qualitative approach that produces descriptive data with case study methods. The results of this study indicate that there are obstacles that occur in the implementation of Teacher Competency Tests, namely the extent of the material being tested, especially in the aspects of pedagogical competence, professional competence and lack of mastery in the operation of the teacher's computer. This is what causes the low scores obtained when implementing the Teacher Competency Test. But on the other hand in improving the quality of education, teachers continue to strive to be able to deliver their students to obtain various achievements in school.

Evaluation is widely acknowledged as a powerful means of improving the quality of education. The introduction of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) is considered as one of the major steps taken in this regard to improve and strengthen the quality of learner evaluation. The state of Kerala has been going through a series of educational reforms over the last decade or so and the introduction of CCE in the state is one among them. As emphasized by Kerala Curriculum Framework (2007) the implementation of new evaluation practices focusing on CCE was introduced right from primary to secondary level. Though the state has made all-out efforts to implement CCE in its true spirit, the questions that remain unanswered are that whether CCE has been actually and effectively implemented in all classes, what problems are being faced by teachers while implementing CCE. The present paper is a brief attempt made in this regard and is directed towards answering these questions and giving suggestions for the same. The study has been conducted on teachers of upper primary government schools of Kerala.
