英國政府26日推出一項職業指導規劃，將通過網絡向小學生提供職業規劃信息，這一規劃旨在幫助社會各階層家庭的孩子實現自己的職業目標。布里斯托、曼徹斯特、普林茅斯等地的38所小學將率先進行試點，學生們將有機會走進大學校園接受職業傾向方面的指導。一些學生由于家境貧寒，往往覺得上大學或從事某項職業的想法遙不可及。這項規劃也意在讓這些孩子知道可以達到何種目標，從而為他們上高中選科目打下基礎，并激發他們的積極性。

Children in British primary schools as young as nine are to receive advice via internet sites such as YouTube on their future career paths under a new scheme, the government said on Monday.
Under the program designed to help children of all socio-economic backgrounds realize their goals, students will be given mentors, have the chance to visit universities, and be given counseling on what subjects to study via social networking sites like Facebook.
A recent study showed that 75 percent of 11-year-olds wanted to attend university, the government said.
"Parents tell us they want to see an end to the old boys network that means only children from privileged backgrounds get their foot in the door," Ed Balls, schools secretary, said in a statement.
"It is often too late for children to start thinking about this at 14 when they are influenced from when they are seven, eight and nine," he said.
The program, which will be trialed in 38 schools is designed to encourage pupils to think about their work aspirations at a young age, the government said.
The pilot schools will be located in Bristol, Coventry, Gateshead, Manchester, Plymouth, Reading and York.
