percentage of 15-year-old--age as at the beginning of the academic year--pupils who achieved fewer than five GCSE grades A*-C in
each local education authority in England for 1991-92 to 1994-95.

Dame Elaine Kellett-Bowman: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment if she will collect statistics on the
movement of pupils in the two years following GCSE. [8541]
Mr. Paice: The Department plans to extend the requirement on careers services so that they also collect information on the first
destinations of 17 and 18-year-old school leavers. In future years this requirement may be further extended to include the
corresponding further education college leavers and provide a fuller picture.

Dame Elaine Kellett-Bowman: To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what statistics are maintained (a) nationally
and (b) regionally providing details of the movement of pupils in the two years following GCSE. [8540]
Mr. Paice: Statistics are collected by careers services on the first destinations of all 16-year-olds following the completion of
their compulsory education. The local area statistics are aggregated to provide regional and national figures. The findings are
normally published early the following year and the report on the destinations of the 1995 year group is expected shortly. In recent
years the report has been published by the Association of County Councils with the support of the UK heads of careers services and
the Department.
Additionally, since 1985 the Department has funded the youth cohort study. This is a postal questionnaire survey of approximately
20,000 young people in their first year after the end of compulsory schooling. The sample is representative of young people of the
given age group in England and Wales.
Further questionnaires are sent to the same young people in each of the following two years, so providing information on their
progress at 16-17, 17-18, 18-19 years of age.
The YCS provides detailed information on the school experience, current activity, education, qualifications, employment and training
of young people, together with a small amount of contextual socio-demographic background data. The study was designed to provide a
national picture and reports normally concentrate on national figures.
