GENERATION Survey: School Context, 2022

GENERATION is a new study of young Australians to understand youth transitions from school to post school destinations, including a focus on how the COVID-19 pandemic may influence decisions and pathways. GENERATION tracks the interests, hopes and aspirations of young people. A representative group of Year 10 students (around 15 years of age), from over 300 schools across Australia, participated in the first wave of the study in 2022. The School Context survey is a supplementary data gathering tool to the Young people’s survey data. The objective of the survey was to collect information about programs/interventions intended to enhance student career pathways, improve student outcomes, and understand how the pandemic impacted on the school and delivery of programs for the student cohort. In the 2024 release, school-level variables including SEFIA, ICSEA, and number of school/grade enrolements have been added. Further information about the equity programs in schools has also been added. School weights have also been included in this release.
