Abstract:
|
In Germany, the entry into the labor market for students in the nonacademic
tracks of secondary schools may take multiple pathways. Students graduating
from lower track secondary schools (LTSS) face major problems in school-towork
transitions, prompting the provision of intensive career guidance in school. In
a case study for the City of Freiburg, this paper analyzes skill formation, career guidance,
and the first transition after graduation for LTSS students in the late 2000s. We
find that only about 10% of LTSS students start an apprenticeship immediately after
graduation. Instead, about half of the LTSS students, typically those with better
school grades, participate in additional general teaching (AGT) and rather enter further
schooling than an apprenticeship. In addition, the majority of students with poor
school grades continue with pre-vocational training. The latter group involves a large
share of male students with a migration background. Our findings show a large heterogeneity
among LTSS students, most visible in the division between students with
and without AGT. Furthermore, characteristics observable at the end of grade 7 have a
strong predictive power on the transition after graduation, and focusing career guidance
on the immediate start of an apprenticeship after graduation may be misplaced.
