The results obtained from the research are as follows: 1) The background knowledge and characteristics of the two curriculums are different, and in addition there is a negative perception due to the fact that it is hard to facilitate a class with just one teacher. 2) The issues that were most serious to teachers were professionalism of the teacher, qualification of the teachers, and teaching method. Also the teachers lacked in confidence in teaching and the curriculum itself. 3) In regards to qualifications of the teachers requested that teacher should have single qualification in Technology(or Home Economics) or dual qualifications in both Technology and Home economics . As for teaching methodology responded that from the teacher and student perspective the teaching should be divided whereas from the school s perspective the responsibility should be put on a single teacher. 4) Teachers responded that from the perspective of the teacher, parent or student Technology and Home Economics should be separated into two subjects.
