In discussing production of science equipment in the Caribbean a necessity which the meeting had earlier identified was to ensure that the equipment produced would be put to the best advantage. It had been suggested that there should be adequate teacher preparation, both at the pre-service and in-service levels, and that the teacher education programmes should include some training in the preparation and use of equipment. During the discussion of the lead paper on “Programme of Training and Supervision for the Efficient Use of School Science Equipment and the Dissemination of Information Relating to their Use”, the meeting focused its attention on the development and establishment of in-service training centres at local, sub-regional and regional levels.
