What factors most strongly influence successful transitions? What contributes to learners becoming NEET during these transitions?
Background
Children and young people need support through significant educational transitions. This is vital for their long-term success. These periods, including transitions from early years through to post-16 education, training or care, can present heightened risks, particularly for vulnerable children, young people and learners. Effective transition planning requires collaboration between early years, schools, post-16 providers, social care and other agencies to ensure continuity of support and prevent disengagement. It is essential to understand the factors that influence successful transitions and the role of data sharing in order to shape policy and practice that promote stability and positive outcomes.
