International Experiences and Trends in Building HighQuality Teachers for Graduate Degree Pre-school Education -- Taking the United Kingdom, New Zealand and the United States as Examples
Abstract
pre-school education. This study takes the policy documents, professional standards, teacher training and other textual materials of early childhood teacher team building in the United Kingdom, New Zealand and the United States as the research object, and summarizes the unique cultivation methods of each country through the literature research method, textual analysis method and comparative research method. In the United
Kingdom, different levels of qualifications for early childhood teachers are divided; in New Zealand, a complete system for the implementation of
induction education is in place; and in the United States, a multilevel system of professional standards and teacher training for teachers is in place.
By exploring the successful experiences of various countries, this paper provides experience for the construction of Chinas postgraduate educated
early childhood teacher team, which in turn stabilizes the teacher team and improves the overall quality of preschool education.
