IntroductionContext Trends in Youth DevelopmentDrivers in Successful Youth TransitionsWhere Policy IntervenesPrinciples from the Evidence

This is a review of adolescence in contemporary England, viewed through a developmental perspective.Introduction Look at the demands from employers of new labour market entrants.Look at the expectations of society from new adults.What attributes do adolescents need to develop?We take stock of how adolescents develop the skills for adulthood, and explain the challenges they encounter.

We define the role of Government in supporting the development of young people.

We consider whether the fact that the lives of young people are changing rapidly matters for adolescent development, or has significant policy implications.We willFurther

Structure of ReportIntroduction TrendsDriversRole of GovernmentPrinciplesAs a starting point, we briefly review aspects of young peoples world that have undergone significant and relevant change.The main body of this report discusses the drivers of successful youth transitions into adulthood. What development is required to exploit opportunities? And which factors influence that development? And how do they operate?We examine how government intervention impacts on different groups of young people in supporting making better transitions. Principles and areas emerging from the evidence for possible future intervention.

Adolescence is not strictly defined by chronological age, but we can identify a number of stages and changesPre-adolescenceAge 9 to 13Begins with the onset of puberty and is marked by the most rapid growth spurt.The time when the need for independence becomes increasingly apparent.The time during which teenagers start to disengage with their families and begin to shift to economic and emotional independence.

Middle adolescenceAge 14 to 16

Late adolescenceAge 17 to 19Asmussen et al. (2007) Supporting parents of teenagersBlakemore S-J & Choudhury, S (2006) Development of the adolescent brain: implications for executive function and social cognition. Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry Introduction StagesChangesPhysicalPsycho-socialIntellectual Brain Development Development in this stage is unrivalled by any other point in development except infancy. Puberty triggers a surge of growth and sex hormones.The brain re-organises: some areas get less efficient, such as working memory, while others, such as recognising emotion, get stronger.Adolescence is a distinct phase in the development of thinking skills. Thinking changes from concrete thinking (e.g. yes and no) to formal operations including abstraction and forming hypotheses.Adolescence is the stage when young people start developing personal identity; trying on different roles to work out who they are and how they fit within society. This can involve tensions within families as young people seek independence and a separate identity.

The role of Government in young peoples lives has to balance the needs of the individual, society and the economy There is no single route through adolescence, but it does needs correct pace in order to benefit society and the individual. Too fast: young adults are less likely to have the skills needed to be self-sufficient sustainably. Too slow: the financial burden on family and society may become excessive.The principle of self-responsibility is strong and Government has a critical role in promoting opportunity and information so that everyone can to do best for themselves.

However, important inequalities amongst young people exist, and Government has an important role in targeting support to those with either fewer opportunities or inability to fully exploit them.

Some activities of young people impact adversely on other members of society, such as anti-social behaviour. It is right for government to intervene to stop it; exactly as happens with other people.Introduction

The demographic landscape for adolescents is changingTrends in Youth Development DemographicPopulation projections (England)There are 3.3 million 15-19 year olds in England.

From a recent high point, this number is currently falling and will continue to do so over the next 10 years, before bouncing back.

The proportion of 15-19 year olds in the population will fall over the next decade from 1 in 16 to 1 in 19 - the lowest ever share.

Minority ethnic groups are 14% of 15-19 year olds, compared with only 5% of over 50s.Sources: ONS (2009) Population estimates by ethnic group, mid-2007 (experimental).GAD (2009) Population Projections 2008 estimates

Source: LSYPE wave 4 and YCS, Cohorts 4-13, sweep 1

1 There is a slight discontinuity between the 1994 and the 1996 survey which may have resulted in an overestimate of those in full-time education.

2 Includes many respondents for whom neither parent had an occupation.

3 Data from 2000 use the family NS-SEC to describe overall economic status of the family see notes to editors.

4 Includes equivalent GNVQ qualifications achieved in year 11 from 1998.

5 Consists of those with 1-4 GCSE grades at A*-C and any number of other grades.

6 Data from 2000 onwards, shaded grey, are for England only. Data prior to 2000 are for England and Wales.

7 Estimates for 2007 use combined YCS, cohort 13, sweep 1 data and LSYPE wave 4 data.

Cases which are missing, refused, not stated or dont know have been excluded from this table.

Aggregate snap-shot statistics mask extensive diversity in the pathways young people follow post-GCSE.Continuous education - 59% of young people remain in full-time education for two full years after compulsory education.Mainly NEET 5% of young people cycle between NEET and other activities (mainly work with out training). Some young people spend the full two years NEET.Becoming NEET 5% of young people who complete or drop out of a course of full-rime education spend most of the remainder of their period NEET. Some start jobs only to leave them quickly.Return to education 5% of young people who enrol in full time education at 17, having spent spells in a variety of activities at age 16.Education to job without training 5% of young people who stay in full time education in the first year only to leave to a job without training.Job with training 8% of young people spend most of their time in jobs with training, a small number with short periods of other activity.Increasing job without training 8% of young people spend most of their time in jobs without training, with some spending the first year NEET or other activities.Education to work with training 6% of young people who study in full-time education at 16, then move into a job with training, however some with a short period NEET.Source: DCSF using LSYPE and YCS Here the LSYPE & YCS have been used to categorise the routes taken by young people in the two years following compulsory education. This pie chart represents eight stereotypical pathways based on individual monthly activity data.Trends in Youth Development Learning3 out of 5 young people continue in full-time education continuously to 18 or beyond.The remaining 41% follow many routes post-16, often cycling between periods in learning, work (with or without training), unemployment and inactivity.

These charts look like they have been created from IFS Drivers and Barriers work:

http://www.dcsf.gov.uk/research/programmeofresearch/projectinformation.cfm?projectId=15337&type=5&resultspage=11

Most likely the adolescence project team have liased directly with authors and created their own charts.

Therefore the LSYPE team don't have the 'excel versions behind the charts'. But we could liase with authors if there are particular things you would like.
