Abstract
Executive Summary: This research on young people who are not in employment, education or training (NEET) is a sub-study of the Effective Pre-school, Primary and Secondary Education (EPPSE 1997-2014) programme of research. EPPSE is a longitudinal, mixed methods research study, funded by the Department for Education (DfE) that has followed the progress of 3000+ children from the age of 3 to 16 years. Details of the earlier phases of the study can be found at http://eppe.ioe.ac.uk. A focus for EPPSE has been the influence of different phases of education (preschool through to secondary school) on children's cognitive/academic and socialbehavioural outcomes, as well as other important background influences such as gender, family characteristics and the home learning environment etc. The final phase of the study followed the participants to their post age 16 destinations (six months after they completed their Key Stage 4 GCSE or equivalent exams). This research was commissioned to explore why some young people from the EPPSE sample became NEET 6 months after finishing compulsory education by examining some of the factors that might have contributed to this as well as the barriers and facilitators to these young people getting into education, employment or training.
