Abstract | Upper secondary schooling in Sweden was reformed in 1970. Until then, the preuniversity three- and four-year theoretical courses of study had constituted a separate type of school from vocational education. These two programs of study were combined to form a single, integrated upper secondary school with a small number of two-year theoretical courses of study. A further major reform is now being introduced. The new proposal calls for the inauguration of a three-year experimental scheme beginning in the 1988-89 school year. At least 10 percent of the training provided in the first two years is to be conducted in the workplace. In the third year, the workplace portion of vocational training provided is to increase to 60 percent of the total study time input. An increased proportion of general subjects and the development of modular syllabi are two other features of the proposed program. To help counteract sex bias, at least 20 percent of first-time student equivalents in the technical-industrial and social service/caring professions courses are to be reserved for females and males, respectively. Provisions pertaining to equipment and teaching materials for vocational education and education of supervisors have also been included in the bill. (MN) |
