A systematic review of recent research into the impact of careers education and guidance on transitions from Key Stage 3 to Key Stage 4 (1988 – 2003)
EPPI-Centre
Successful transition through the education system into further education (FE), training and work is central to current UK Government policies, designed to promote social inclusion as well as economic prosperity through competition and the development of labour market skills. However, by the end of 2000, the UK appeared to be falling behind its European neighbours. Access to high-quality information, advice and guidance is integral to fulfilling the Government's targets. The aim of this review is to ascertain the role and impact of careers education and guidance (CEG) on young people's transitions from Key Stage 3 to Key Stage 4.
