Abstract : The article on the continuing training and professional performance of primary teachers in Tchad is intended to reflect on the performance of primary teachers, particularly those of the school in the Farchana refugee campt to ensure quality education to effectively address the real problems of learners and the educational community. The article therefore raises a problem of ineffectiveness of teachers in this concern. It is the continuing training which allows teachers to adapt to professional requirements and the modernization of teaching practices through technological tools and new didactic materials. Continuing training is therefore an essential factor in enabling teachers to achieve the best educational and professional performance to guarantee quality education. However, it is essential that this training be carried out under appropriate conditions taking into account all the institutional, conceptual and practical arrangements for training.

Keywords : Continuing Training, Teacher, Primary Education, School in the Farchana Refugee Camp, Pedagogy, Teaching Materials and Professional Practices.
