Percentage NEET (inc not known) (16-17 year olds) - WMCA

This is the number of 16 and 17 year olds who are not in education, employment, or training (NEET) or their activity is not known, expressed as a proportion of the number of 16 and 17 year olds known to the local authority (i.e. those who were educated in government-funded schools). Young adult offenders in custody are excluded from the denominator used to calculate participation, NEET and not known rates. The age of the learner is measured at the beginning of the academic year, 31 August. The annual figure is made from an average of December, January and February. This includes young people educated in other authority areas, students living away during term time. Young people who were not educated in the maintained sector will only be included if they are known to the LA. Since April 2018, the NCCIS management information requirement stated that LAs should record the activity of refugee/asylum seekers in the same way as the rest of the cohort. Prior to 2016 local authorities were required to also track 18 year olds but this requirement was lifted. Where a young person's current activity is recorded as any of the following then their activity at the end of the month is categorised as NEET:  Working not for rewardNot yet ready for work or learningStart date agreed (RPA compliant or Other)Seeking employment, education or trainingNot available to labour market/learning - carer, teenage parent, illness, pregnancy, religious grounds, unlikely ever to be economically active. The following are included in the overall NEET/NK figures: Current situation not knownCannot be contacted/no current addressRefused to disclose activity.Data is Powered by LG Inform Plus and automatically checked for new data on the 3rd of each month.

本数据集记录了16岁和17岁不在教育、就业或培训状态（NEET）或其活动情况未知的人数，以占当地当局已知16岁和17岁人数的比例表示（即曾在政府资助学校接受教育的人群）。被羁押的年轻犯罪者不包括在计算参与度、NEET和未知率所使用的分母中。学习者的年龄以学年伊始，即8月31日为基准进行测量。年度数据由12月、1月和2月的平均值构成。此数据包括在其他当局地区接受教育的年轻人，以及学期期间在外居住的学生。未在公立教育部门接受教育的年轻人，只有在当地当局已知的情况下才会被包括在内。自2018年4月起，NCCIS管理信息要求指出，地方当局应按与整个群体相同的方式记录难民/寻求庇护者的活动。在2016年之前，地方当局还被要求追踪18岁人群，但这一要求已被取消。若年轻人的当前活动记录为以下任何一项，则其月末活动将被归类为NEET：无报酬工作、尚未准备好工作或学习、已同意开始日期（符合RPA或其他）、寻找工作、教育或培训、无法参与劳动力/学习——照看他人、未成年父母、疾病、怀孕、宗教信仰、不太可能具有经济活动能力。以下情况包括在总体NEET/NK数据中：当前情况未知、无法联系/无当前地址、拒绝披露活动。数据由LG Inform Plus提供支持，并在每月的第三天自动检查新数据。
