From what I remember of my primary years in schooling a teacher centered approach was prevalent.
I don't ever recall the students being asked to contribute to the planning or direct the shape of the lessons in any way. In particular my years 5 & 6 teacher was very close to retirement age at the time he took my classes and I assume he relied on 'old school' practices.
It is reassuring to note the emphasis placed on student- centeredness in current teacher training courses.
