Froebel's Legacy, Kathleen A. Strub-Richards
Froebel's Legacy, Kathleen A. Strub-Richards
Kathleen A Strub-Richards
When Froebel was growing up in the late eighteenth century, young children under the age of seven didn’t attend school. There was no general education curriculum geared toward young children and no socially recognized value in attempting to teach them (Brosterman, 1997). Friedrich Froebel, through his experience with young children, was the first to see that “constructive, directed” play was extremely beneficial for children under the age of seven.

Early School Leavers: Who Are They, Why Do They Leave, And What Are The Consequences?, Gary Marks, Julie Mcmillan
Early School Leavers: Who Are They, Why Do They Leave, And What Are The Consequences?, Gary Marks, Julie Mcmillan
Julie McMillan
Changes in the youth labour market mean that that pathway from school to work is no longer so clearly defined. This paper addresses three broad issues: (1) In the late 1990s, who left school before the completion of Year 12? Are the sociodemographic factors which exerted an influence in the past still influencing the educational pathways of young people? (2) What are the reasons given by young people for leaving school early? (3) What are the consequences of school non-completion in the immediate post-school years?
