FE to HE PROGRESSIONResearch Evidence 2011Progression Tracking Research Project
FE to HE PROGRESSION TRACKING RESEARCH – WHY? • Low progression rates of vocational learners and apprentices • Parity of esteem for vocational and work-based learning pathways including Higher Apprenticeships • Increasing social mobility and access to the professions
FE TO HE PROGRESSIONMETHODOLOGY Kent and Medway level 3 FE learners tracked into higher education: 2005-06 into 2006-07 – 2009-10 (4 years) 2006-07 into 2007-08 – 2009-10 (3 years) 2007-08 into 2008-09 – 2009-10 (2 years) 2008-09 into 2009-10 2009-10 into 2010-11 this year ILR matched internally and with HESA

APPRENTICE PROGRESSIONKEY RESULTS • 5.3% of the 2005-06 cohort progressed immediately • Increased to 13.1% when tracked for 4 years • North East Region has highest progression rate at 16.3% • 20% of Apprentices who progress live in disadvantaged areas compared to 15% of young HE entrants • Between 2005 and 2009 number of Advanced Level Apprentice achievers increased by 36% • Number entering HE increased by 69.5% • Real terms increase of 24.5% • Increase has been to HEFCE funded HE rather than non-prescribed HE

THE FUTURE • BIS funding to extend tracking to 2009-10 cohort into HE 2010-11 • Include level 2 to level 3 • Include more fields to provide HE in FE detail • Bespoke regional, sectoral and institutional reports • Longer term funding to include FE progression to provide national and localised progression picture Hugh Joslin (h.d.joslin@greenwich.ac.uk)
