Abstract

Australia's Tertiary Education Commission has just issued its recommendations for the next tertiary education triennium, 1982–1984. A major aspect of the recommendations for Victoria is that resources for pre‐service teacher education courses should be reduced still further, so that the total reduction in the number of places between 1978 and 1984 will be about 30 per cent. The Federal Government has accepted most of the Commission's recommendations except that it wants the rationalization of control in teacher education, as the first step in the reduction, to be completed by the end of 1981. This is before the triennium has started and only provides eight months for new amalgamations and councils to be formed. This article has been prompted by the recent events in teacher education in Australia.
