Abstract (in English)

This review has looked at guidance and counseling in the transition from primary and lower secondary
school to upper secondary education, from upper secondary education to higher education, and of employed
adults, i.e. ’transition guidance and counseling.’ It contains only studies that deal with guidance and
counseling in which the effects are documented.
It appears from the foregoing section that, on the basis of the 39 studies included in this review, we can say
that what contributes most to guidance and counseling as a feeling of clarification and decision-making
competence is a combination of many forms of intervention (guidance and counseling activities) that are
part of a curriculum.

Abstract (in English)

This summary, which accompanies a fuller report entitled ‘The Contribution of Careers Education and Guidance To School Effectiveness In ‘Partnership’ Schools’, provides an overview of the findings from the first phase of a research project that was carried out by the National Foundation for Educational Research (NFER) between December 1998 and September 1999. The study, which was conducted in 30 selected schools across England, was
commissioned by the DfEE in order to gain a clearer understanding of the impact that careers education and guidance might have upon the overall effectiveness of schools.
