3. Maverick students

They are those who are not really motivated or attracted by the teaching profession. These are students who entered teacher education at former KIE because of other variables, such as government sponsorship.  They pointed out that they did not intend to be teachers, but because they were government-sponsored to study education and could not pay for private university education in a field of their choice. They finally ended up changing their minds and accepting teacher education.  For them, this career would only be performed as a last job opportunity.
