John Hattie, the new chair of the Australian Institute for Teaching & School Leadership, supports a more stringent accreditation process for the country’s 400 teaching courses. Hattie notes that there is a 30 per cent over-supply of teachers in some areas. He suggests that culling courses could result in better-quality degrees. Hattie has drafted a new direction for the Institute, which accredits courses for public school teachers. It reflects the Australian Government’s policies to improve teaching quality
