Economic Fairness - Apprenticeships
The number of apprenticeship starts and achievements a year fell sharply during the Covid 19 pandemic, both in London and across England as a whole, which is not surprising in the context of both the restrictions and the economic circumstances. However, the number has fallen further in the latest year, when all restrictions have been removed, but with the new...

Economic Fairness - In work training
During 2023, just below one in five economically active Londoners reported receiving job-related training in the last three months.

Economic Fairness - NEET

Economic Fairness - No/low qualifications
London has a relatively well qualified population, with more than 60 per cent of the population holding at least a National Qualifications Framework Level 4 qualification – higher than A level or equivalent standard. Just over one in ten London residents of working age has no or low qualifications, decreasing steadily from around 18 per cent in 2011. The gap...

This regional disparity has remained for the 2024/25 data, though the Early Years Foundation Stage Profile (EYFSP) has been significantly revised since...
