520 |a A study examined the role and significance of part-time (PT) work for 16-19-year-olds in advanced level, full-time education (FT) in South Gloucestershire in the context of the Curriculum 2000 advanced level qualification reforms. Data were from 466 completed student questionnaires, 6 in-depth face-to-face interviews with major local employers of 16-19-year-olds; telephone interviews with teachers responsible for the advanced level curriculum; group interviews with 42 students in their first year of advanced level courses. Findings indicated the proportion of FT students in PT work in 2001 was greater than in 1999; the proportion of FT students working over 10 hours per week in term-time in 2001 was greater; 78 percent of Year 12 and 91 percent of Year 13 FT students were involved in paid employment during term-time; most PT students were employed on the weekend and/or one evening during the week; the majority of students who work PT felt they derived benefits from their jobs; most felt able to balance studies and work; the majority did not feel their school/college helped them manage the balance between paid work and study; employers were keen to employ students and appeared sympathetic to ensuring students balanced commitments to work and study; and teachers were concerned about achievement levels and strategies to balance learning and earning.
