2. Summary of findings and future reporting plans

The consultation responses (see Section 4) indicated that there was a consensus amongst users, supporting the proposal for Scottish Government to record all school leavers undertaking Personal Skills Development as being in a positive destination in a new category.

As a result, a new Personal Skills Development category will be included as a positive destination in the Summary Statistics for Attainment and Initial Leaver Destinations 2018/19 publication in February 2020 and the Summary Statistics for Follow-up Leaver Destinations in June 2020, and allfuture publications.
