Thousands of teenagers will be able to move to a new wave of “studio schools” at the age of 14 to improve their chances of finding a job in UK. Twelve new-style schools are open to act as a bridge to the workplace and cut the number of NEETs.
Under plans, schools will operate longer days and work outside standard school terms.
Each teenager will be expected to spend between four hours and two days a week on work placements with business related to the school and a personal coach will be sent to the teenagers to act as a school “line manager”.
The reforms (改革) are put forward because of the fears that too many teenagers are finishing full-time education at present but they are short of the skills needed to succeed in the workplace. According to a recent report, more than two thirds of employers (雇主) believe school and college leavers have less important employability skills, while 55% say they are unable to manage their time or daily routine. And the number of NEETs who are not in education has hit a record high, with almost one-in-five young people being left without a job or a training place.
The Department for Education will tell the public the building of 12 studio schools – providing for around 3,600 teenagers – in areas such as Liverpool, Stevenage, Stock-on-Trent and Fulham, west London. Each one will be connected to the local employers. Under plans, teenagers will be able to move out of ordinary schools to attend them between the ages of 14 and 19.
The government said all
subjects would be taught “through projects, often prepared with employers” – with rules such as science being connected directly to local engineering companies or hospitals. Schools will operate a longer day to give teenagers a better understanding of the needs of the workplace. Along with their studies, students will carry out work placements for four hours a week, rising to two days a week of paid work for those aged 16 to 19. They will also get the chance to take professional qualifications (专业资历) connected directly to the needs of local employers.
1.According to the passage, NEETs refer to those who ______.
A. often miss classes from studio school
B. prefer studio sc
hools to ordinary schools
C. refuse to take any part-time job after school
D. are not in education, employment or training
2.Compared to ordinary schools, studio schools will offer the young more ______.
A. skills to finish full-time education
B. personal coaches to help with the work
C. chances to get future jobs with job training
D. jobs to make money without going outside
3.What makes the government decide to build studio schools?
A. The worry about educated teenagers short of working skills.
B. The doubt about whether full-time education is perfect.
C. The decision to solve the problems of unemployment.
D. The increasing number of teens who drop out early.
4.What can be the best title for the passage?
A. Studio schools are popular in UK at present.
B. More NEETs will find jobs from Studio schools.
C. Teenagers will get jobs without full-time education.
D. Studio schools are built to improve teens’ employability skills.
