Madam, – I refer to the article, “Online College to Offer HDip in Education” (November 16th). It may be of interest to your readers to note that the Teaching Council, the regulatory body for the teaching profession, has put in place robust, evidence-based processes for reviewing and accrediting programmes of teacher education. To suggest that these are in any way a “rubberstamping” of the decision of any other body is misleading and inaccurate. – Yours, etc,
