Department for Education and Employment

TYPE OF PUBLICATION:

Research Brief No 81

LANGUAGE/S OF PUBLICATION:

English

DESCRIPTION OF CONTENTS:

Youth Training(YT) was the main government funded work based route for training for young people in the first half of the 1990s. The aims of this study were to examine the characteristics of those who left Youth Training early and to investigate their reasons and characteristics.

COMMENTS ON THIS PUBLICATION:

Using the web site will allow access to a short version of the research, full copies may still be available although the report is now quite old. Nevertheless some of the reasons and characteristics still have relevance today and I found there is quite an interesting section on a 'Definition of Early Leaving' that links with the difficulties experienced in obtaining comparable statistics across Europe.
