1. Activity Agreements were introduced in 2010/11 and therefore are not included in 2009/10 figures.
2. Positive destination includes higher education, further education, training, voluntary work, employment and for 2010/11 also includes activity agreements. Activity agreements did not exist in 2009/10 and were therefore not included in the percentage in a positive destination for 2009/10. This should be considered when comparing the % in a positive destination between 2009/10 and 2010/11.
