Comparison of Social-Economic Backgrounds of Vocational Students Taking Automobile Mechanics II in the French and English Sector on the Island of Montreal
|
Abstract |
An examination of the students entering the vocational Automobile Mechanics II program in Montreal schools in the 1980s in terms of future employment expectations based on linguistic and socio-economic backgrounds. The author questioned forty Anglophone and fifty-one Francophone students from three Montreal area schools. The author found that the socio-economic background of the two groups was basically the same. Both groups chose vocational education as a route to employment. However, for financial reasons, the English-speaking students viewed their chosen field as permanent, while the French-speaking students believed to a greater degree that they would continue their education.
