School Leavers Survey (SLS)

Full name of the series in original language
School Leavers Survey (SLS)
Abstract

The School Leavers Survey is a long-running study, conducted by the Economic and Social Research Institute (ESRI) and funded by the Department of Education, which examines young peoples' experiences while at school and their experiences of the transition from second-level education to labour force participation, further education, or economic inactivity.

The School Leavers’ Survey has been in existence since it first surveyed young people who left the second-level education system in the academic year 1978/1979.
It ran consecutively from 1980 through to 1999 and in 2003, 2004 and 2006, thus enabling the analysis of both short-term and long-term trends.
