(Freebody, 2006 p31) Ensure the inclusion VET (technical, practical and critical aspects)
19 If we don t I mean, I asked for some more at the last HOD meeting, I put the question to all the HOD s and the Admin, they were all there at our fortnightly meeting, or weekly meeting, and I said well, you know, what importance does this body of people here place on Vocational Education, and I came up with the quote you know, that only 25% go to uni, so 75% aren t, obviously aren t going to uni, so they re going into the workforce and, how are we catering for those students? (Sam 5/5/2000: 134).
20 If we don t What we saw last year, because that was the first time we offered TAFE courses within Year 11 last year was the first time they could do a TAFE course in school, and mostly it didn t work because they d miss a whole day of school (Paul, Year 11 Coord 13/5/2000)
21 If we don t I think some of those kids are there because they ve got nowhere else to go. Some of them are away for [days], because they do TAFE, and things like that too. And you find that in the lower stream a lot, they re more likely the kids that will be doing TAFE. But I think a lot of it is just motivation. They don t really see the value of school. I have one student at the moment who for every assessment we get it s [ ] what value is this going to be to me in the real world?. They don t see, they don t understand the connection between what we do in class and what they think they will be doing when they leave school (Erica 14/5/2000: 98).
22 If we don t [ ]then every time the education department gets hold of it, and all of a sudden you ve got SACE and the kids have to write that or they have to give a verbal something or other, and the same old problems arise, the kids that have reading problems and that are behind the eight ball [remain that way]. Teacher in SA
23 If we don t VET feels just like a normal class. I thought it would be different because they said that OP subjects get you into uni. I was thinking that those subjects[op] would be tougher but they re exactly the same Indigenous Community Education Counsellor.
24 If we don t So, in my area I ve got Board subjects and I ve got them in school registered, so, the accountability on the Voc Ed subjects is different for these teachers, some of them have never been teaching [these] subjects, and all of a sudden they ve got to have all these records, that s a challenge (Sam 5/5/2000: 72).
25 If we don t Well, it was quality based. I mean any of the SAS subjects, and we ve got sort of several here, well obviously they re quality based. You ve got Internal Quality Reviews, which you don t have for normal board subjects, or school subjects. You ve got External Quality Reviews, which again you don t have. I mean, the reporting is sort of different, because you re basically reporting to industry. Which is the difference. You ve got, industry playing a key role now, whereas normally it was just straight education, and it was either a school subject, which means, there wasn t any moderation or anything like that. It was very different you know, from going down to any Brisbane BSSSS board meeting, or anything like that. It s, it s just totally different. You know, I mean you re in a situation, thou shalt do this, and so it s just sort of working things out within these structures (Samantha 28/02/2000: 60).
26 If we don t Vocational education in the school is not at the forefront. I mean, its not like sporting achievements or having really good English competitions and things like that. Se we tend to be always [ ] in the background. But then again, we re not doing anything that I suppose is flashy or that s going to cause [major change]- Except get kids jobs.
