This section draws together the findings of this study, which investigated the entry characteristics of new entrants to the teacher training college. This is the first study of this nature undertaken at the National Teacher Training College. It may be noted as already pointed out, that the College has developed a practice of collecting data on some characteristics of new entrants by recording the entry qualifications and from interviews of these students prior to admission. The extent to which the College tutors use this information beyond admission purposes could be a subject of another investigation.
