Abstract
The impact of careers guidance and advice on newly recruited primary teacher education students is the subject of this article. Data were obtained through questionnaire survey and follow-up interviews with new (1998 entry) primary teaching students, drawn from 14 different Higher Education institutions. The foci of the research were a wide range of issues related to recruitment into teaching, with the careers service just one amongst many potential sources of guidance and advice. However, media coverage of the research report focused primarily, and negatively, on students' views and opinions of the careers service. This article sets our findings and advice within the context of the whole research project.
