This paper aims to explore student’s pathways to post-secondary
education in terms of trustworthiness of relevant information
about university education, working life and respective successful
transitions. It is anchored on the boundary crossing conceptual
framework to explain the gap existing between secondary school,
college and working life choices. Using a case study design, a list
of questions collected during 2016 TCU exhibition at Mzumbe
pavilion has been analysed and reveals a range of information
gap amongst prospective university applicants. In addition, by
reviewing relevant literature on students’ transition, analyzing
relevant documents, this paper offers an understanding of
initiatives used by various stakeholders to prepare students for
higher education and working life and associated challenges. The
review of literature and documents reveal that there are no clear
coordinated strategies across stakeholders with regard to
preparing students for post-secondary education and career
progression on the one hand and there are insufficient welfare upport services to students to promote the needed information on the other. Based on the challenges and conclusion, some recommendations have been proposed as a basis for best practices to address the post-secondary transition paradox. |
