The authors in this work paint a picture of the enormous reservoir of human talent which exists in the country, but is not provided with the means to develop. Responding to the Educational Needs of Post-School Youth attempts not only to sketch the scope and extent of the current post-school educational crisis, but also to explore possible solutions through collaboration in the higher education sector. The findings reported here are a result of three distinctive but linked research components conducted by the Further Education and Training Institute (University of Western Cape), the Centre for Higher Education Transformation, and the Southern Africa Labour and Development Research Unit (University of Cape Town). The research was funded by the Ford Foundation and the project conducted in consultation with the Department of Education. 606 $aEducation / Philosophy, Theory & Social Aspects$2bisacsh 606 $aEducation 615 7$aEducation / Philosophy, Theory & Social Aspects 615 0$aEducation. 702 $aCloete$b Nico 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910765779203321 996 $aResponding to the Educational Needs of Post-School Youth$93651067 997 $aUNINA
