Employers questioned
PA Hamilton The Employers’ Federation has issued a questionnaire to members and will use the results in its submissions to the Government on secondary school qualifications. The federation has told its members that the future structure of examinations and awards in the last three years of secondary school is of crucial importance to employers. The questionnaire includes questions on how much significance em-
eers attach to examinaqualifications in selecting school leavers, whether examination results are good indicators of job success, how many examinations employers think there should be in the last three years of secondary schooling, and what school leaver document should show. Employers are asked also how satisfied they are with Sixth Form Certificate and University Entrance, and how important they feel comparability of standards between schools is.
