This Data Insight explores the factors that are associated with the receipt of careers advice and guidance among young adults in Wales.
This Data Insight explores how young workers are matched to firms across local labour markets in England, using the Longitudinal Education Outcomes (LEO) dataset.

This Data Insight uses the Longitudinal Education Outcomes (LEO) dataset – England to compare the labour market trajectories of students who followed academic and vocational pathways after their GCSEs. The insights point to a substantial gap in earnings growth, with students who followed academic education routes experiencing higher earnings growth in their careers. The research highlights the role of firms in explaining and amplifying this difference.
