The PASEC14 report

"The assessment shows that a non-negligible proportion of pupils in all countries have a teacher who has received no pre-service teacher training." (PASEC24 report, p. 121)

It is easy, sitting in Sweden, to forget how different the situation is in other countries. But the recent report from PASEC reminds us how much of an uphill battle getting an education is for learners in many countries. Girls who do not go to school, learners who must work on the land, ...

I could mention that in Togo, 67.2% of early primary school learners have a teacher with no teacher education, or I could point to that 72.7% of early primary school learners have a teacher with 2 years+ of teacher education. The extremes are not important, the overall picture is.

What would we offer in a teacher education program if we only had 6 months to work with?
