This panel discussion will be led by representatives of Scotland's Council of Deans of Education with input from Deans / Heads of School of Education from other contexts who will be participating in the conference. Professor Lynn M.Gangone, President of the American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education (AACTE), will contribute to the panel.

As well as setting out the role and contribution of the Scottish Council of Deans of Education, a key focus will be on discussing the challenges and opportunities experienced by those directly involved in leading teacher education faculties in universities. Themes and questions will be framed to encourage audience participation and dialogue, with each other and with the panel. While the current education reform programme in Scotland will be a focus, other areas to be explored will include shared challenges relating to teacher recruitment and retention and research priorities for teacher education.
