Around a million young people in the UK (aged between 16-24) are not in education, employment or training (the so-called NEETs).
One key factor for the persistence of this marginalisation of young people from activities that have longer term impact on birth heir wellbeing & income, is the role of schools in surging such rejection of (or exclusion from) such early life opportunities.
Looking at how schools can help NEETs before they become NEETs is the key!
