Training the UK's Youth — Is Enough being Done?
Abstract
How the UK Compares with Other Countries In 1981, when the Manpower Services Commission (MSC) launched its New Training Initiative, only 30 per cent — three out of ten—of all young people in Britain aged 17 were participating in full‐time education or training. The comparable figure for 17 year olds in the United States was 87 per cent, in Japan 87 per cent, and in West Germany (in the “dual” system) 89 per cent. Our participation rate at age 17 was by far the lowest of any developed country.
