Number of female 16 and 17 year olds known to the local authority (denominator for NEETS) (9616) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the number of female 16 and 17 year olds known to the local authority (i.e. those who were educated in government-funded schools). Young adult offenders in custody are excluded from this 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.
DfE changed the definition of NEET at the end of 2016 to include those young people whose activity is not known and shifted the period for which the average is made from November to January to December to February. As such these figures cannot be compared with NEET publications for previous years.
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.
