Different Sectors of life and human existence largely depend upon the promotion of education and within education teacher education is of paramount importance. If teachers are of quality then the product would be no doubt good, which in return, effect the economic growth and industry to greater extent. By doing so we have to see the ways and means, methods of teaching, the outcomes, needs of the society etc. The social circles, planners and other social stakeholders should give high priority to teaching profession and similarly put them on high pedestal for great expectations and their due role in the community. But the practical aspect is different. People consider teaching profession as low status activity, and therefore, it is quite difficult to incline people to this profession. Teachers are considered to be agent of change. They are expected to implement the very reforms taking place out of school in the developing countries. The gulf exists between the outside world and inside the school. The school is a society within a society on a miniature scale. It is suggested that teacher’s qualifications and training should be adequate to meet the needs of the students. Teachers’ salary should be revised and the profession should be attractive. If the teachers are well equipped with the modern methodologies and are competent enough, automatically the quality of education would be high. The elementary stage in Pakistan education system is quite poor. The propaganda for the reforms and standardized of elementary education was too much on media but the ground realities are totally different. In higher education the component of research is very poor, there is no research culture, the overcrowding classrooms, poor methods and matter, poor management and leadership speak the situation. Poor information system and access to the new knowledge, the application of such knowledge are some of the factors facing the education system in Pakistan. Efforts should be made to change the stereotyped and outdated face of teacher education and to bring desirable changes into the system so that teacher education be made effective, responsive and intensified. The existing system does not match the demands of the society. In order to reform and improve the existing teacher education programme, both sectors i.e., the Preservice and In-service should be focused in terms of curriculum assessment, methods and techniques of teaching, the use of educational technology A.V Aids and other teaching resources. As said earlier education is socialization a social enterprise, a social activity, therefore, dynamism in education is related to the standard and quality of teachers
