Equity in the learning society: Rethinking equity strategies for post-compulsory education and training

By Louise Watson, Peter Kearns, John Grant, Barry Cameron

This report provides a review of the equity and access policies in schools, vocational education and training, higher education and adult community education and argues that government equity strategies could be improved by: targeting low-SES students within all equity groups; identifying two new target groups: those with low skills and the long-term unemployed; reporting performance in a way that focuses on the outcomes (in addition to the outputs) of education and training; strengthening pathways to employment from education and training.
