This study aims at analysing language teacher education programmes from three secondary school teacher training institutions in Malawi. It also discusses the possibility of having a consolidated language teacher education programme for all institutions. The data were generated through document analysis of the language teacher education programmes and route maps. The data shows that the three programmes have a four-part kind of teacher programme which has courses in education foundation, teaching methodology, content and teaching practice. The courses offered are basically similar in all the three institutions with minor differences, especially in terms of the number of courses and the level at which they are offered. Considering the fact that these three institutions aim at producing teachers that will handle the secondary school English curriculum there is a possibility of having a consolidated language teacher education programme.
