This article investigates the difficulties faced by trainee English teachers when they teach writing. As newcomers to the profession, they are trying to understand the processes involved in becoming a writer. At the same time, they are asked to focus on the forms and features of different kinds of writing as a way to meet ‘writing objectives’ laid down in a number of curriculum documents. When the student teachers do approach writing as a process, they sometimes see it as a process of progressively acquiring discrete skills, such as ‘writing descriptions’ or ‘using complex sentences’. The experiences of five trainees are examined with a view to understanding how their subject knowledge about writing might be developed by those working with them, in universities and in schools.
