Abstract

The purpose of this study was to analyze B.Ed graduates’ performance functioning in secondary schools to check the relevance and effectiveness of accessible B.Ed curriculum by taking views from stakeholders (principals and SSTs) to give viable recommendations for improving it on the basis of their feedback. A sample of three hundred and sixty (ninety principals and two seventy SSTs) was selected. One self developed validated questionnaire was used to collect required data. The results concluded that the existing B.Ed curriculum is not capable to equip potential teacher according to the ambitions, wants and demands towards schools and society while it has no representative association with the school education. On the basis of results and feedback from stakeholders and on the whole review of curriculum is suggested to be commenced by involving stakeholders to build connections between it and the school curriculum. An adequate length of practicum element is suggested to powerfully bridge the gap between the theory and the practice to help latent teacher to reinforce the concerns which are crucial for the qualitative perfection of the whole range of education. These recommendations might be helpful for authorities to revamp relevant and effective teacher education curriculum as well as to elevate the standards of teaching and assessment at secondary level.
