An increasing demand for secondary school education facilitated the eventual establishment of the College of Education at the provincial university in 1928.

Because the government continued to issue temporary certificates to applicants who had completed one year of normal school, many high school graduates saw the profession as a convenient short term job prior to marriage or another career. In 1947, for example, 1,264 students were enrolled in normal school, but there were only 5,869 students in grade twelve...Although the provinces' Normal Schools in Regina, Saskatchewan and Moose Jaw had been renamed Teachers' Colleges, they had remained under Department of Education jurisdiction. In 1964 all teacher education was consolidated at the University of Saskatchewan campuses in Regina and Saskatoon..."unquote Page 56 and 60. Date accessed May 16, 2013.
