Erica Stanford: Education Minister on new teachers not being set up to succeed - The Mike Hosking Breakfast

The Education Review Office (ERO) found new teachers are not being set up to succeed and need more support. 

Nearly two-thirds of principals reported teachers are coming to the role unprepared. More than a quarter of new teachers say their initial teacher education was ineffective. 

Education Minister Erica Stanford tells Mike Hosking strengthening initial teacher education is a priority. 

Stanford hopes that by next year systems will be in place to moderate providers for a consistent approach to what is being taught at initial tertiary education, what is happening on placement, and what happens in the first two years on the job.
