Equity issues in inital vocational education & training
@ Krista 1: The situation in Germany
So what you find as particularly problematic with secondary education vocational orientation programmes in Germany regarding equity issues is that it attracts students that already have got their Abitur, that is their upper secondary leaving certificate from the academically oriented Gymnasium, and then enroll to a VET school. This trend affects the classroom composition because these students mix with another group which has been directed to VET because of low academic expectations or perfomance? If I got it right, what is the implication regarding for example equity of treatment or outputs at school level?
