Isn’t teacher education a Member state responsibility?
Yes. Member States have committed themselves to improving teacher education within the Education and Training 2010 work programme, which is the main framework for policy cooperation in education and training among the Member States for this decade.The Communication encourages and supports national reforms in order to help Member States to adapt their teacher education and training systems to meet changes in the labour market and society in general.The common objectives set by Member States, and the common challenges faced by them, require an approach that is based upon common principles. It is hoped that the Communication will encourage Member States to act in a coherent and concerted way to tackle a problem that affects the whole Union. The aim is to provide Member States with a number of broad policy orientations that will support their ongoing national reforms in teacher education and training. How Member States go about implementing this will, of course, be up to them.
