ABSTRACT
The task for teacher education, whether in respect of teaching in a multicultural society or any other aspect of teaching, is an ever-changing one, subject to changing national needs. In-Service training provision was to be found in fewer than half of the institutions, and the fact that these were located mostly in areas with multi-ethnic schools indicates where teachers perceived their INSET needs to be. Broad geographical areas remain where there is no provision within the notional two-ninths of resources available for in-service training, the majority of the institutions making no contribution, even where some aspects of education in a multicultural society feature in their initial training courses.
