Overview & Synopsis

Explores the background and context of the Australian federal government's new postcompulsory education and training policies. Examines the social, economic, and political context surrounding policy development and the "stitching together" of competing interests. The resulting policy directions, linking goals to equity issues, represent an ambiguous policy mix and offer contradictory possibilities for young people. Implications and recommendations are discussed. (MLH)
