There are many factors which influence the quality of vocational teaching for example, an institution’s ability to identify, attract, motivate, develop and retain excellent teachers heavily influence the quality of teaching the institution provides (National Academy of Education, 2009:1). Darling Hammond (2000:1) found for school education that policies adopted by states regarding teacher education, licensing, hiring and professional development may make an important difference in the qualifications and capacities that teachers bring to their work.
Blom and Meyers (2003:45) identify 22 elements of quality of vocational education and training which includes the curriculum or content that is to be taught, the teaching method chosen and the class sizes, class rooms, work places available for teaching can affect the quality of teaching.
They also noted that students’ preparation, motivation, engagement and aspirations influence the quality of teaching greatly. Some are also influenced by the quality of teaching.
