One in ten – young people not in education, employment or training
Key messages from policy, research and practice about young people who are NEET.
The National Youth Agency and Research in Practice have jointly commissioned a review of policy, research and practice around young people who are not in education, employment or training.

The review draws on a wide range of publications and other sources. It does so in order to extract the messages that might help practitioners and managers improve their understanding of this group of vulnerable young people and families, and build on current endeavours to improve the life chances of those making the transition from compulsory education to young adulthood.
The review is intended for practitioners in all agencies working with and for children and families, and for managers, commissioners and others with strategic, operational and training responsibilities for the delivery of services to promote the Every Child Matters and associated programmes. It set out to explore the literature for answers to the questions posed by those working in the field, and to bring together in one place disparate information about available research and promising practice developments, to form an overview of the topic.
The research was carried out in partnership with Research in Practice (http://www.rip.org.uk/).
