Against The Odds: Influences On The Post-School Success Of 'Low Performers', Sue Thomson, Kylie Hillman
Against The Odds: Influences On The Post-School Success Of 'Low Performers', Sue Thomson, Kylie Hillman
Transition and Post-School Education and Training
The link between academic achievement and labour market outcomes is well established. But how well does a student's achievement in a test predict their later success in life? This study examines this question, with 'success' considered to encompass satisfaction with life together with the extent to which young people are fully occupied with education, employment or a combination of these. Low performers in mathematics in the 2003 Programme for International Student Assessment were the focus. The study found that 'low performing' status has little impact on future success. Further, students who saw the value of mathematics for their future success …

Annual Transitions Between Labour Market States For Young Australians, Hielke Buddelmeyer, Gary N. Marks
Annual Transitions Between Labour Market States For Young Australians, Hielke Buddelmeyer, Gary N. Marks
Transition and Post-School Education and Training
This study uses an annual timeframe to evaluate the influence of labour market status in one period on status in the subsequent period. Understanding the role of past labour market experiences is important when it is the objective of policy-makers to increase the proportion of time spent by young Australians in desirable labour market states, such as full-time work, and reduce the time they spend in marginalised activities, such as unemployment. These concerns are heightened during lean economic times, but they never really go away. A natural question that may arise, especially in a weak labour market for youth, is …
