Employers recognise this and research has also shown that work ability is closely related to self-confidence and emotional stability. <br /><br />Just one example:<br /><br />"Relationship of core self-evaluations traits—self-esteem, generalized self-efficacy, locus of control, and emotional stability—with job satisfaction and job performance: A meta-analysis.<br />By Judge, Timothy A.; Bono, Joyce E.<br />Journal of Applied Psychology.

The obvious example is a portfolio of work for art courses, but there must be other alternatives for other types of course, voluntary work, OU courses, etc, even GCSEs. 5 good GCSEs taken from home probably indicate more sticking power and study skills than 10 even better GCSEs that were spoon fed to you in school. <br /><br />"This sort of study suggests that you are capable of deciding to do something and then sticking at it without giving up after a month or two."<br /><br />Or gives an idea of how big a carrot or stick was held over the child and/or how much help with coursework they were given by parents and/or teachers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881402584568285627.post-41013265445903432202010-01-31T03:44:53.254-08:002010-01-31T03:44:53.254-08:00I don't see it it as one taking precedence ove...I don't see it it as one taking precedence over the other, both academics AND positive personal development will go a long way to helping a candidate stand out and be able to achieve the niche they seek in life.<br /><br />Self confidence, to pick just one aspect, on its own probably won't get you a job you desperately want, that you don't have the required qualifications for, cos most likely you'll never even be offered an interview. <br /><br />However if you do have those required bits of paper AND your personal development is exceptional then you're going to stand out from the crowd, particularly when young since awkwardness and a lack of self confidence can cause many to come across as a bit two dimensional, interchangeable and unmemorable.TEFL Ninjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13660756490115614438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7881402584568285627.post-4699760564750471582010-01-31T01:15:28.401-08:002010-01-31T01:15:28.401-08:00By the way, you say quite accurately that many emp...By the way, you say quite accurately that many employers when presented with candidates with similar GCSEs, A levels or degrees, tend to rely upon other indicators.

That, surely is why there have been such strong objections to government trying to define of what a suitable education should consist, and why previous governments have, wisely, not attempted such an undertaking.<br /><br />I'm slightly puzzled by your view of education. You appear to see it solely as a means to getting a job. (I'm not sure even this perception is accurate; my experience of recruitment suggests that employers can be confronted with many applications from candidates with very similar GCSE, A level or degree qualifications and so rely on other indicators such as work experience, indicators of initiative and commitment to select the candidates they want to interview.)<br /><br />Also, the original purpose of public examinations was to surely to ensure that we had a well-informed populace, who had access to the knowledge and skills they had acquired during their education whenever these were needed. The point of learning so much about the world we live in is not that it will be useful in future, but that it might be useful in future. And not just its utility for the individual, but collectively for the community. <br /><br />Interestingly, the 'vociferous minority' of home-educators objecting to the proposed legislation has been drawing on distributed knowledge and skills that, in some cases, individuals haven't used for years. It's been a steep, but beneficial learning curve for many involved.suzygnoreply@blogger.com
