The Foundation for Young Australians in alliance with Education Foundation are proud to release the How Young People Are Faring research report.

Now in its 10th year, the report has to date been conducted by the Dusseldorp Skills Forum. This year is the first year that the alliance is producing this influential report.

Summary:
The report provides important information on how successfully our education and training system is working to meet the needs of young Australians as they make the transition from school to further study and work. It provides the most up-to-date analysis of the effectiveness of transitions, including information on who is doing well and who is not doing so well in negotiating the various post-school pathways.
