Please could I have the data for the school leavers across all public and private secondary schools for the past three years?
Please could the data include: gender, JP status, and post-16 destination (Hautlieu, Highlands, other 6th form, apprenticeship, work or other).
I am happy for this to be percentages or numbers of students per school, but would like to compare the destinations of genders, as well as the type of Higher Education accessed by differently advantaged students.
I am conducting research for my Masters in Education and am looking at the gender disparity when students are leaving schools at 16.
Response
The requested data would require manipulation of several data sets to provide a response. The Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 does not require a Scheduled Public Authority to manipulate data to provide a response. Therefore, this information is not held and Article 3 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 applies.
