D<\/span>evelopment of quality primary teacher education programme to turn out quality primary school teachers who will able to provide all learners, irrespective of their gender, social, cultural, linguistic and ethnic background with the opportunity to acquire the appropriate knowledge, skills, values and attitudes has therefore become paramount. It is against this background that the Four-Year Bachelor of Education (Primary Education) Programme run by the University of Cape Coast and its affiliate Colleges of Education has been designed to help teacher-trainees acquire the necessary knowledge and skills they need to provide more authentic pedagogical contexts and activities that would help pupils to learn how to learn and become independent lifelong learners. In keeping with global trends and the demand for more learner-centred approaches to teaching, coupled with the significant challenges most Ghanaian school children face in the acquisition of functional literacy, numeracy and problem-solving skills, this rationale becomes very significant.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
