The 15 to 24 Learner Journey Review was set up in 2016 to consider the journey from the senior years of school leading to employment, including further and higher education, vocational training and apprenticeships.
A final report was published in May 2018.
This acknowledges the strengths of the Scottish education and skills system, and sets out priorities for further improvements to ensure all young people get as much as possible from that system.
The publication of the report starts a new phase of further engagement, as we take the Review recommendations forward.
The Review covered the 15 to 24 stage of learning, in recognition that this is a critical point for young people in their learning journey, being the point of greatest choice - and potentially, therefore, overlap - in provision.
It focused on five key areas:
It consists of two stages:
Stage 1: evidence gathering and engagement with stakeholders including young people, This will inform the development of a series of policy proposals - September 2016 to December 2017
Stage 2: phased implementation of actions for change - until 2021
The programme of work supports the implementation of phase 1 of the Enterprise and Skills review (2016) and will build on existing strategies, for example Curriculum for Excellence and Developing the Young Workforce.
