University departments of education in England and Wales plan and deliver their courses according to externally imposed criteria, with gender issues included in education for equal opportunities. This paper presents student and tutor responses to an evaluation of a 1 week compulsory unit on gender in a secondary postgraduate certificate in education course. The reactions to different components of the week are analysed in terms of the contrasting situations and power relations within them. Strong negative responses indicate that staff trying to keep, or even put, gender issues on the agenda face an uphill struggle. This may be made more difficult by the radical reforms proposed for teacher education courses in the near future
