OECD talis initial teacher preparation study

Initial teacher education (ITE) for the years 1 – 10 has for decades been of great interest to the Norwegian media, politicians and public. Today, we are in the middle of transforming today's mainstream ITEs for years 1 – 7 and 5 – 10 from 4 years bachelor level programmes into 5 years master level programmes. Although we have several types of ITE programmes in Norway, we will in this report mainly focus on the two programmes undergoing the transition.
