For example, few institutions attempted to assess students on teaching practice using equal opportunities criteria. The EOC sum up the prevailing mode as ‘benign apathy’. This reflects Skelton’s (1985) findings. Gender issues were not a priority on the teacher education course she studied. Conventional images and stereotypes continued to operate at a ‘hidden curriculum’ level, conveying messages to novice teachers which reinforced the status quo. Our task in this paper is to explore why gender issues are given such low key treatment within initial teacher education.

The ‘reports’ take their place in a climate where even the friends of teacher education have raised similar questions over the years (Universities Council for the Education of Teachers (UCET), 1979). This tide of criticism serves to make teacher training institutions, despite some spirited efforts at self-defence, anxious about their survival and cautious about their public image. Teacher education institutions are being pushed to adapt and survive. g. by recruiting overseas students on to advanced courses).
