DES News Releases
Abstract
One can allow pupils and teachers to taste life in an industrial setting, and come into contact with some of the problems facing those in the productive sector of the economy — the impact and potential in computerised procedures; the need to solve problems; the fact that designing and making things deserve the attention of the ablest pupils; and so on. A corollary is to give employers a better insight into what schools are trying to achieve. The other objective — and a greater challenge — is to prepare young people more effectively for the world of work, without sacrificing the equally important task of all round individual development.
