Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what estimate her Department has made of the proportion of young people aged (a) 16, (b) 17 and (c) 18 who have been recorded as being in jobs without training in each year since 2010.
The proportion of 16-, 17- and 18-year-olds in employment but not in education or training at the end of each year since 1994 is available in Table 5a of the ‘Main SFR tables and figures’ spreadsheet. This is part of the “Participation in education, training and employment, age 16 to 18” statistical first release, which is published online at:
