As levels of young people not in education, employment or training (NEET) remain high in the UK, there is growing concern about processes of school disengagement. Drawing on quantitative and qualitative data, we explore some factors that lead young p... Read More about Young people, school engagement and perceptions of support: a mixed methods analysis.
