Secondary vocational school education in China used to be employment-oriented for many years, but this feature has been recently changed due to the easier way for vocational students into colleges or universities for further education with the new establishment of modern vocational education system and the more difficulty for them to find a job in labor market, especially so after more application of industrial robots in Chinese manufacturing. Now in most coastal and industrialized areas in China, only 1/3 of vocational school students choose to enter labor market immediately upon graduation, which has totally changed the landscape of secondary vocational education in China. The vocational school curriculum has been changing from the unicity of employment-oriented education into the diversity of preparing students for labor market, for further education in colleges home and abroad, or for starting new business. This paper is to explore the context, causes as well as consequence of this great new change for China today and tomorrow.
