A
History of Professional Training at Moray House
“For
nearly two centuries Moray House and its predecessors have been involved
in the professional training of teachers and other professionals.”
The twentieth century saw three anniversaries
celebrated at Moray House: the first in 1935 commemorated one hundred
years of formal teacher training in Scotland; the second in 1948
marked a century of teacher training at Moray House; and in 1998
our 150th anniversary was celebrated. This last anniversary coincided
with the merger of Moray House with the University of Edinburgh.
For nearly two centuries Moray House and its predecessors have been
involved in the professional training of teachers and other professionals.
This history traces the many changes occurring during this period
and how they mirrored changes in Scottish education in general.
