The U.K. government has entered into the country's educational affairs with increasing directness since the ＂Educational Revolution Law＂ was announced in 1988. The Teacher Training Agency (TTA) enacted ＂the Standards for Subject Leaders＂ in 1998. The Department for Educational Employees (DFEE) standardized policy and controlled the development of secondary school curricula. Here the pros and cons of this governmental approach to reforming education are discussed, specifically with regard to the issue of teachers' professional development. This paper is divided into seven parts. First, the author will introduce the goals of the paper. An outline of ＂the Standards for Subject Leaders＂ will be provided. The author will also profile the contents of the various learning areas at issues. Next, an analysis of the significance of, and trends in, teachers' professional development will be made. Then will follow an elaboration of the ideology of ＂the Standards for Subject Leaders.＂ Finally, the author will discuss the lessons one can learn from England's ＂Standards for Subject Leaders＂ and make a conclusion.
