Abstract	This book addresses growing reservations about the relevance of educational systems to the economic and social needs of individuals by examining different aspects of transitions from school to work or further studies within formal and informal settings in Asia. Highlighting important issues such as selectiveness and inclusiveness, integration of transversal competencies, vocationalisation of secondary schooling, approaches to career guidance and emerging models of student support, it is of particular interest to educators, policymakers and other stakeholders who are concerned about the effectiveness of system-wide and institutional-based approaches. The first part of the book explores different models, mechanisms and approaches to policy and practice in the context of Asia, while the second part examines Hong Kong students' transitions to post-school life and provides an account of issues and challenges the government and individual schools experience in terms of structural support for both mainstream and special-needs students. This book contains the following chapters: (1) Stepping into the World: Transitions to Post-school Life (Margarita Pavlova, John Chi-Kin Lee, and Rupert Maclean); (2) Challenges Beyond Schooling: Innovative Models for Youth Skills Development in India (Santosh Mehrotra and Vinay Swarup Mehrotra); (3) Transversal Skills as a Missing Link Between School and Work: Experiences from the Asia-Pacific Region (Antony Tam and Barbara Trzmiel); (4) Modern Apprenticeship as an Effective Transition to Working Life: Improvement of the Vocational Education System in China (Zhiqun Zhao); (5) Transitions: Conceptualization of Individual Educational Pathways (Margarita Pavlova and Tatiana Lomakina); (6) School to University Transitions for Australian Children of Refugee Background: A Complex Journey (Loshini Naidoo, Jane Wilkinson, Misty Adoniou, and Kip Langat); (7) Informal Education and Learning Pathways: Supporting Livelihood Trajectories of Indian Women in an Urban Slum (Supriya Pattanayak and Narasimham Peri); (8) Life Planning Vocational and Technical Educations and Secondary Schooling in the Context of Educational Reform and Socioeconomic Changes in Hong Kong (Chi Kin John Lee, Rupert Maclean and Lan Yang); (9) In Search of an Epistemological Underpinning for Applied Learning in Hong Kong: Insights from the Aristotelian Phronesis and Its Contribution to Facilitating a Sustainable Transition from School to Work (Wai-yan Tang and Wai-lun Tang); (10) Schools' Support for Postschool Planning: A Hong Kong Perspective (John Chi-Kin Lee and Orlando Nang-Kwok Ho); and (11) Post-school Transition of Students with Special Educational Needs in Hong Kong (Sin Kuen Fung and Yang Lan).
