Abstract:
Teacher Education Programme (TEP) is a critical component of education in the
society. It determines the rate and level of development in any society. This is because
the programme focuses on preparation and production of school teachers whose main
role is to transform a society with relevant competencies for development. However, due to the dynamic nature of education and society, Teacher Education Programme
experiences emerging issues in education. Today in Kenya, and indeed in the whole
world, the concerns in education are access to education, quality in education and
equity in education. These are current aspirations by all in education but somehow
elusive to realise. However, when proper reforms and innovations in Teacher
Education Programme are undertaken, it is possible to develop and manage these
important developments in education. This paper explores and discusses how reforms
and innovations in Teacher Education Programme in Kenya can facilitate the
achievement of access, quality and equity in education
