First findings of IEA’s “Teacher Education and Development Study in Mathematics (TEDS-M)” had revealed differences in the demographic background, opportunities to learn (OTL), and outcomes of teacher education between student teachers from different countries. Two hypotheses are examined: OTL and teacher background are significant predictors of mathematics content knowledge (MCK) and mathematics pedagogical content knowledge (MPCK) as outcomes. OTL effects are partly mediated by differential student teacher intake. Data from multi-level models support our hypotheses with respect to gender, high-school achievement, motivation, OTL in mathematics and the mediating effect of student teacher intake. Background affects only MCK but not MPCK.
► Opportunities to learn affect significantly outcomes of primary teacher education.
► Prior knowledge and gender strongly affect outcomes of primary teacher education.
► Motivation mediates effects of prior knowledge on teacher education outcomes.
► Effects of opportunities to learn are partly mediated by teacher intake.
► Effects on content knowledge are greater than on pedagogical content knowledge.
