The VSK framework articulated, in broad  \nterms, the desired skills and knowledge components for beginning  \nteachers, with the underlying core values permeating the  \nprogrammes. The paper has two parts, the first of which details the  \ndevelopment as well as the conceptual underpinning of the VSK  \nframework. Part two, through a programme evaluation, discusses  \nthe validity and reliability of items developed through the VSK  \nframework to measure the values, skills and knowledge that  \nstudent teachers perceived through their initial teacher  \npreparation programme.  \nIntroduction  \nRapid developments in education, both locally and globally, have raised questions about teacher education and the attributes which underpin proposed teacher preparation and professional development opportunities (Thorpe, 2002) . There is a need to draw up descriptions of core attributes to provide teachers new to the field, and those responsible for training them, with clear goals and understanding of the role of a teacher. According to Hager and Gonczi (1993) the generic interpretation of competency centres on the crucial general attributes that an effective practitioner demonstrates and which may be transferable to other roles. A holistic perspective of attributes brings together a range of interpretations and allows for the incorporation of values, ethics and the need for reflective practice. This emphasizes an integrated approach which seeks to establish the relation between knowledge, skills and values.  \nEducation and the challenges of preparing quality teachers are important priorities in many developing and developed countries ; Singapore is no different. The success of what Singapore hopes to achieve in education depends on the quality of its teachers. Competent effective teachers help to build a strong system of education. The traditional role of the teacher atthe centre of student learning is no longer adequate to meet these challenges. In 2004 the National Institute of Education (NIE), Singapore, reviewed and enhanced their pre-service programmes. The desired attributes of a beginning teacher were articulated and a Values, Skills & Knowledge (VSK) framework was developed.  \nThe paper has two parts. The first details the development as well as the conceptual underpinning of the VSK framework. Part two, through a programme evaluation, looks at the validity and reliability of items developed through the VSK framework to measure the values,  \nVol 34, 3, June 2009 1  \nAustralian Journal of Teacher Education  \nskills and knowledge that student teachers perceived through their initial teacher preparation programme.  \nPart One  \nDevelopment of the VSK framework  \nCompetency frameworks attempt to make explicit a set of minimum and essential desired attributes of beginning teachers (NBPTS, 2002) .
