Education and Skills Bill

On a slightly different note, when the Minister described the OECD ratings of countries that had compulsion for 16 to 18 year-olds, I noticed that, although Belgium was first and does have compulsion, the other countries were fourth, seventh, fifteenth—I forget the exact numbers. However, it would be interesting to have some information about the countries that were second and third and perhaps fifth, six and seventh that do not have compulsion and to know how they succeed so well in keeping young people in education. They are clearly using carrots rather than sticks.
