While we found that Indigenous and non-Indigenous students held similar occupational aspirations, Indigenous students were much less likely to aspire to attend university. Most starkly, high-achieving Indigenous students were significantly less likely to aspire to university than their high-achieving non-Indigenous peers. Given this evidence, we argue that both the possibility and desirability of higher education must be addressed if the widening participation agenda is to meet equity targets for Indigenous students.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 14:19:19 AEST ]]> Australian school student aspirations for military careers: traditional perceptions in shifting contexts https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:30376 Wed 11 Apr 2018 11:24:47 AEST ]]> Aspiring to higher education in regional and remote Australia: the diverse emotional and material realities shaping young people’s futures https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42915 Wed 07 Sep 2022 09:33:19 AEST ]]> Grouped out of STEM degrees: the overlooked mathematics ‘glass ceiling’ in NSW secondary schools https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49868 Wed 07 Jun 2023 15:05:51 AEST ]]> Community matters: The complex links between community and young peoples’ aspirations for higher education https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50693 Wed 02 Aug 2023 11:24:08 AEST ]]> Why people choose teaching: a scoping review of empirical studies, 2007–2016 https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42323 Tue 23 Aug 2022 09:33:51 AEST ]]> Profiling Australian school students' interest in a nursing career: insights for ensuring the future workforce https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32303 Tue 22 May 2018 15:39:59 AEST ]]> New possibilities for engaging school teachers in widening participation: professional development to support student aspirations https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54586 Tue 14 May 2024 15:37:24 AEST ]]> Under pressure and overlooked: the impact of COVID-19 on teachers in NSW public schools https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50120 Tue 11 Jul 2023 15:33:15 AEST ]]> Degrees of “being first”: toward a nuanced understanding of first-generation entrants to higher education https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38783 Tue 06 Jun 2023 16:07:12 AEST ]]> Professional development in equity interventions for school teachers.

Despite a recent increase in research on this topic, relatively little attention has been paid to Indigenous students' aspirations while they are at school.

However, this stratification is glossed over in widening participation policy and research. In this paper, we challenge this view by examining young people’s capacities to ‘choose’ university using the heuristic of ‘embedded choosers’ and ‘contingent choosers.’ Our analysis of two school-based case studies highlights the early stratification of students’ post-school choices, conceptualised as a continuum from an absence of choice to a wide array of global choice. We argue that rather than focus on gains in overall enrolment, there is a critical need to address the insidious stratification that is subsumed within the widening participation agenda.]]> Mon 20 May 2024 12:58:43 AEST ]]> Professional development in equity interventions for school teachers.
