What is quality in education?• Learners who are healthy, well-nourished and ready to participate

and learn, and supported in learning by their families and communities;

…• Processes through which trained teachers use child-centred

teaching approaches in well-managed classrooms and schools and skilful assessment to facilitate learning and reduce disparities.

• Content that is reflected in relevant curricula and materials for the acquisition of basic skills, especially in the areas of literacy, numeracy and skills for life, and knowledge in such areas as gender, health, nutrition, HIV/AIDS prevention and peace.

…• Outcomes that encompass knowledge, skills and attitudes, and

are linked to national goals for education and positive participation in society.

(UNICEF, Defining Quality in Education 2000, Preface, The International Working Group on Education Florence, Italy)

What is quality in the Labour Market?

• Job quality is a multidimensional concept …– it supports the hypothesis that a higher level of job

quality is associated with better labour market and economic performance

– it emphasises the heterogeneity of quality across social groups, especially according to gender, age, and education.(Christine Erhel, Mathilde Guergoat-Larivière , Job quality in the LM (2010) French Centre d’Etudes de l’Emploi (CEPS)

• ILO: DECENT WORK AGENDA (1.)…2.) Extending social protection;

3.) Guaranteeing rights at work…4…) • EU: Flexisecurity Concept

• Guidance: Career resilience vs. career satisfaction (CLD/:career and learning development/-Bridge)
