We report one aspect of a naturalistic inquiry into development in student teachers' beliefs on language teaching and learning. The purpose of the inquiry was to test the widespread view that these beliefs are in¯exible. It was also to explore the nature of belief development, if observed to occur. Twenty students on the 1997±1998 PGCE Secondary (Modern Languages) course at the University of Reading participated in a sequence of three in-depth interviews. Their accounts of their beliefs and perceptions of development in them were analysed, focus- ing on the nature of development processes. In all but one case, participants' beliefs showed some development. A set of change process categories was observed. Programme variables which might be associated with belief development are discussed.
