Abstract

Since the onset of bilingual education the Spanish academic register of some bilingual education teachers has fallen short of meeting the desired purpose. Spanish and bilingual education professors and administrators have failed to work jointly for nearly five decades and they are responsable for this shortcoming. Based on the analysis of their respective Discourses the former group has lacked in both their critical consciousness and commitment to bilingual education resulting in failing to design the necessary Spanish for specific purposes courses for the prospective bilingual education teachers. The latter, in contrast, have been remiss in teaching and especially publishing academic texts in Spanish a vital tool for the preparation of the population in question. Consequently, a new direction and space is proposed to better prepare bilingual education teachers.
