Reid, H.L. (1999). Barriers To Inclusion For The Disaffected: Implications For 'Preventive' Careers Guidance Work With The Under-16 Age Group. British Journal Of Guidance & Counselling. Vol. 27:4. pp. 539-554.Editorial Comment:
Focus
Issues arising from Careers Service refocusing its work with the 'disaffected' in the UK are examined, with particular attention to preventive work with the under 16s as a new direction for careers practitioners. The extent to which 'inclusion' is likely to be achieved via enhanced guidance is discussed. The benefits of such intervention are questioned.
Findings
It is suggested that guidance is ineffective if it fails to consider social difference, and that it must pay adequate attention to the social and personal context within which the individual operates. Assumptions behind individualistic 'lifelong learning' policies are called into question.
