| Abstract | Abstract The article argues, in relation to Malawi, that curriculum vocationalization of general academic education as a ploy for solving school leavers' unemployment seems more of a myth than a practical reality. In that vocational education costs twice as much as general education, and bearing in mind that there are a number of partially or indeed unmet basic human needs, Malawi may not have enough resources to effectively vocationalize given her relative poverty. And even if there were enough resources, emerging evidence suggests that schools can prepare their pupils for the labour market only to a limited degree because of the variety and frequent changes of occupations. Accordingly, the paper concludes that vocational training should be left to specialist institutions outside general education, and should be ‘employment-based’ as far as possible. |
