Summary/Abstract: The education reform, taking place for the second decade, encounters a lot of problems. They appear due to not properly balanced preparation of the documents for the reform in education institutions. The general education programmes and education standards prepared on the general education level fully reveal the general education content and methodological provisions. The education institutions carrying out the social order – to prepare teachers for work in general education schools – should reform the preparation process following the education policy which will enable more rapid development of the education reform. The high schools preparing future teachers also are reorganising separate speciality preparation programmes taking into account the new activities among teachers and students, the application of new technologies, innovation implementation and development of distance teaching in the education system. The new regulation of some specialities and a new conception of teacher preparation have been prepared. These are the documents which describe the contents, volumes and purposes of the specialities. The development of the education reform shows that the quality of the specialist preparation is also a problem. The long-lasting preparation of geography and other subject studies programmes, the results of the teachers’ competence research performed by graduate students, and also geography teachers-methodologists-experts’ remarks show that the preparation of specialists must be more regulated. The process and the process management must ensure the specialist preparation quality. For this reason the teacher preparation regulations must be prepared, and also future teachers preparation standards developed. This will allow improving specialist preparation level for the work in general educations schools.
