The problem:
Many young people leave school without the skills they need in
the workplace or a realistic idea of what career might suit
them.
The solution:
Introduce a broad curriculum up to age 14 that includes a mix of
practical and academic learning. Through academic activities and
real world settings, young people will be given the opportunity to
develop life skills and experience a range of future options. These
activities will inspire and motivate the young person before they
make choices affecting their future.
