The study attempts to highlight the rationale for national policy, to tease out the many strands of the initiative, to discover how ECM was being interpreted at institutional level by the teacher education community, and, drawing on that welter of evidence, to offer a credible portrayal of teacher education in the new and rapidly changing context.
