"Australian school students feel immense pressure to go to university, often at
the exclusion of all other pathways, which can lead to devastating mental
health effects.
That’s among the headline findings of our decade-long program of research on
the aspirations and post-school trajectories of young Australians.
Our research, published today in the journal
Educational Review, reveals the
unintended consequences of government higher education policies, inadequate
school career advice, and a wider public devaluing of the vocational education
and training sector."
