This book addresses growing reservations about the relevance of educational systems to the economic and social needs of individuals by examining different aspects of transitions from school to work or further studies within formal and informal settings in Asia. Highlighting important issues such as selectiveness and inclusiveness, integration of transversal competencies, vocationalisation of secondary schooling, approaches to career guidance and emerging models of student support, it is of particular interest to educators, policymakers and other stakeholders who are concerned about the effectiveness of system-wide and institutional-based approaches. The first part of the book explores different models, mechanisms and approaches to policy and practice in the context of Asia, while the second part examines Hong Kong students' transitions to post-school life and provides an account of issues and challenges the government and individual schools experience in terms of structural support for both mainstream and special-needs students.



Margarita Pavlova is Associate Professor at the Department of International Education and Lifelong Learning, the Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK). She is also the director of the UNEVOC center (Hong Kong) that is a member of the UNESCO network of centers for technical and vocational education and training.

John Chi-Kin Lee is Vice President (Academic) and Chair Professor of Curriculum and Instruction at the Education University of Hong Kong (EdUHK). He is also director of the Center for Religious and Spirituality Education, the EdUHK and Changjiang Chair Professor in China.

Rupert Maclean is concurrently QAPCO Professional Chair of Vocational Studies, UNESCO Chair on TVET and Sustainable Development, and coordinator of the UNESCO-UNEVOC Centre in Qatar at the College of the North Atlantic-Qatar.
