The transition from school into working life is such a crucial step in young people’s biographies that young people find it very difficult to make the “right” choice at this juncture. What is important to them with regard to their future working lives, why do they find the decision so hard, and what support would they like during this phase? These and other questions must be taken into consideration if the aim is to organise offers of vocational orientation and educational pathways in such a way as to offer all young people good career prospects as far as possible.
