Proportion of 16 and 17 year olds in employment combined with study (15726) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the number of 16 and 17 year olds who are in employment combined with study expressed as a proportion of the number of 16 and 17 year olds known to the local authority (i.e. those who were educated in government-funded schools). The proportion of full time employees in a job that provides training or is combined with part time education or training leading to a regulated qualification. The education or training must be the equivalent of at least 280 hours per year. This is the equivalent of around a day a week, but may be undertaken on a block release basis. Full time self-employment, holding a public office or voluntary work may be regarded in the same way as full time employment in these statistics. Young adult offenders in custody are excluded from the denominator used to calculate participation, NEET and not known rates.
The age of the learner is measured at the beginning of the academic year, 31 August.
This includes young people educated in other authority areas, students living away during term time. Young people who were not educated in the maintained sector will only be included if they are known to the LA. Since April 2018, the NCCIS management information requirement stated that LAs should record the activity of refugee/asylum seekers in the same way as the rest of the cohort.
