This report provides you and our other local partners with analysis of key information specific to your local authority area including: - The results of the Initial School Leaver Destination Return (2013/14) - Links to National Training Programme participation and outcomes (2014) - Unemployed seeking analysis (as at 1st December 2014). We hope this analysis will be useful in helping to inform your thinking around your youth employment strategies and wider Community Planning Partnership outcomes. We are committed to working with our local partners and sharing information that supports our joint work to secure the best opportunities for people in your area.

Initial (autumn) destinations data is no longer published in December by the Scottish Government but the data is combined with the subsequent (spring) follow up, and will next be published by Scottish Government in June 2015. We have agreed to continue to publish the initial destination information in December 2014, to meet the needs of our partners. The initial destinations information contained in this report is based on the known status of school leavers on the snapshot date of Monday 6th October 2014. The initial destinations have been gathered through a combination of direct follow up of leavers by SDS and shared administrative data from local authorities, colleges, the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and the Student Awards Agency for Scotland (SAAS). Leaver data is supplied to the Scottish Government’s Education Analysis Unit (SGEAS) at an individual level and they match this data to information they hold in order to to report against the National Indicator “Increase the proportion of young people in learning, training or work”. Changes in Reporting Methodology This year sees the introduction by the Scottish Government of Insight, a new online tool for secondary schools and local authorities to benchmark and improve the performance of pupils in the senior phase. Insight will use the school leaver destinations provided by SDS to SGEAS but will use a slightly different methodology for defining which school leavers Insight include within their measured school leaver cohort. For this transitional year, Skills Development Scotland will continue to use in December the same reporting methodology as used in previous years. By retaining this we are able to report in a consistent method, familiar to users of our reports, and to provide year to year trend analysis on a like for like basis within this publication. In the longer term we will consult with our users on how they consider SDS should proceed in the future. During this transitional phase it is important partners are aware that when data about leavers is released on Insight in February 2015, and published by the Scottish Government in June 2015, there will be differences in the data, arising from the differences in methodology used to define who is a school leaver. These changes are anticipated to be minor at a national level, although individual schools may see greater variations depending on the effects of the changes made by Insight to their definition of the leaver cohort. The SLDR cohort is followed up again in March and the Scottish Government use the results of the March follow up to report against the National Indicator, “Increase the proportion of young people in learning, training or work”. This indicator is based on the school leavers from publicly funded secondary schools. This excludes schools in the independent sector and all special schools. The Scottish Government’s Analytical Services Unit will publish the initial destination results at the same time as the follow up <ul style="display: flex;"><li style="flex:1">South Lanarkshire Council Community Planning Partnership Report (Dec 2014) </li><li style="flex:1">5 of 28 </li></ul>results in June 2015, and for that publication they will change their methodology to that used by Insight. Analysis The analysis that follows is based on data recorded about leavers on our customer record system. Leavers that were identified as having moved out with Scotland are excluded. This report relates to the 3,359 leavers from publicly funded secondary schools in South Lanarkshire Council.
