The purpose of the Design and Technology Teacher Education Group (DTTEG) is to share ‘best’ and emerging practice, encourage diverse perspectives and promote the development of D&T education. DTTEG is an unincorporated association. We are a collective comprised of university- and school-based teacher educators, involved with initial teacher education, continuing professional development and postgraduate study. We speak with many voices but are united in our desire to promote the teaching of designing, making and evaluation in primary and secondary school settings.

- Teacher education programmes: school-based and university-based, undergraduate and postgraduate;
- Subject knowledge enhancement;
- Recruitment to teacher education programmes;
