Gen Z Graduates Report Feeling Unprepared for Life After High School
EdSurge
EDITOR BRIEF
A new study says many recent high school graduates feel unready for adulthood and for further education or training. It also finds they are more likely to enter shrinking job sectors and that many do not finish the programs they begin. Experts in the excerpt say schools should be judged by outcomes such as employment, education completion, and independence.
INSIGHTS
For learners, this is a reminder that school success is more than grades. When planning your next step, build skills like self-awareness, adaptability, and goal setting so you can choose training or work that fits you.
