This paper has as its focus the Teacher Training Agency (TTA), its structure and working practices. The Agency will be placed in context of the policy of ‘reinvented government’ which has been emerging in the UK over the last decade. Restructuring the organisational and administrative framework of public policy has given rise to issues concerning principles of accountability and representation. Such concerns are reflected in commentaries and evaluation of the TTA. In this sense, a central aim of the paper is to articulate the specifics of the TTA with the wider social policy literature which addresses the effects and democratic implications of public sector restructuring and the consequences for policy analysis.
