The GOETE project has just published its report on teacher training. The report is about comparative analysis of the organisation of teacher training in the respective countries in terms of contents, relation to school practice, education policy, and relationships with other educational actors. These objectives lead to two main research questions: (1) What are similarities and differences in the structure of teacher training between the countries? (2) In which way does teacher training prepare future teachers for the handling of and the coping with educational disadvantage?

The research for this report is based on three major sources: questionnaires filled in by the GOETE partners,
document analysis and expert interviews. The focus is on lower secondary education within the
age group of 10 to 16 years.
