abstract: 'Chapter One outlined the notion of transitions - the social
|
||||
|
||||
transformations that young people make on their journey to independence
|
||||
|
||||
and `adult'' responsibilities. There has always been some variation, but
|
||||
|
||||
transitions today are even less likely to take a straightforward and
|
||||
|
||||
linear course. Young people''s plans and aspirations are shaped by the
|
||||
|
||||
labour market and, specifically in the UK, the move from manufacturing
|
||||
|
||||
and industry to more flexible employment, for example, in the service
|
||||
|
||||
and retail sectors. So there are now more choices, but involving greater
|
||||
|
||||
insecurity and risks.
|
||||
|
||||
Tony Blair described his early priorities as Prime Minster as
|
||||
|
||||
`education, education, education''. In this he signalled the primacy of
|
||||
|
||||
education and training under New Labour as a means of tackling social
|
||||
|
||||
marginalisation and exclusion. Their initial focus was on young adults
|
||||
|
||||
through the New Deal for Young People (NDYP) and, related to this, the
|
||||
|
||||
New Deal for Lone Parents. However, the younger age group quickly came
|
||||
|
||||
under the spotlight with initiatives on truancy, school exclusions and
|
||||
|
||||
training provision for 16- and 17-year-olds, as well as a reshaping of
|
||||
|
||||
the 14-19 Curriculum. At the same time, new forms of guidance and
|
||||
|
||||
support - both targeted and universal - became available through the
|
||||
|
||||
Connexions Service.
|
||||
|
||||
New Labour policy had two main facets: it concentrated on increasing
|
||||
|
||||
employability rather than job creation itself and it worked to provide
|
||||
|
||||
equality of opportunity rather than reducing social inequalities. In
|
||||
|
||||
this respect, responsibility was again placed on the individual to
|
||||
|
||||
actively make choices, to pursue opportunities and so to reap the
|
||||
|
||||
benefits, particularly the benefits that were seen to accrue in terms of
|
||||
|
||||
social inclusion. But inclusion is not inevitable: for some young people
|
||||
|
||||
the available employment excludes even further when it is insecure,
|
||||
|
||||
exploitative or isolating due to long or unsocial hours. The coalition
|
||||
|
||||
government is following in much the same vein but is working in worse
|
||||
|
||||
economic circumstances and in a climate of increased animosity towards
|
||||
|
||||
benefit claimants, heightening geographical and social disparities.
|
||||
|
||||
This chapter explores aspects of the school to work transition in the
|
||||
|
||||
present social and economic context, evaluating the impact of the New
|
||||
|
||||
Labour and now the coalition government''s responses to the changing
|
||||
|
||||
world of work and the extension of periods in training and education.'
