Synopsis

Intended for students looking beyond GCSE's to their next move, whether into the sixth-form or on to college and work, this book examines closely the three areas of achievement in which students should be confident - skills, attitudes and qualifications. Every option at 16 is explained and weighed up in order to help students decide which path to take - work, training or full-time study. It acknowledges the recent increase in the staying-on rate and puts particular emphasis on education and training. It focuses in on vital new developments such as National Education and training targets and vocational A-levels (GNVQ's). It also includes individual case studies and an overview of the types of jobs people do and how they fit into the "production process". It examines the role of the technologist, the technician, the skilled worker and the operatives. Inspection copies are available.
