Description

In a modern global knowledge economy, the role of young people defined as lower attainers or those with learning difficulties is often misunderstood. This book by Routledge examines the complex relationship between education and the labor market for these individuals. As governments in developed countries push for all citizens to be economically productive, questions arise regarding how to support those with learning disabilities without treating them as mere social problems or resource consumers. Ignorant Yobs?: Low Attainers in a Global Knowledge Economy provides an investigation into how society views and integrates these learners. It looks at the gap between educational outcomes and the demands of the contemporary workforce. This text is essential for those looking to understand the systemic challenges faced by low attainers and the ways in which the global economy impacts their social and professional standing.
