The Department for Education (DfE) has recently published an interactive (R-shiny) tool to allow individuals to look at main activities and earnings trajectories of individuals after leaving compulsory education.
This exciting new ‘dashboard’ from DfE uses the LEO dataset to track 3.6m individuals who did their GCSEs in England between 2002 and 2007. It draws on previously published analysis that tracks these individuals after they completed compulsory education over a 10-15 year period.
The analysis shows comparisons by various different socioeconomic, demographic and education factors. It has splits by Free School Meals (FSM) eligibility, Income Deprivation Affecting Children (IDACI quintile, minor ethnic group, special educational needs (SEN) status, gender, region, first language and key stage 4 attainment.
There is an additional split by education level (graduates versus non-graduates and level 3 to 5 versus level 2 or below) if you wish to see differences within (broad) education levels (select ‘choose a population’).
