The second Longitudinal Study of Young People in England (LSYPE2), known as “Our Future" is a DfE commissioned longitudinal study that began in 2013. This is one of the largest and most challenging studies of young people ever commissioned, building upon the first LSYPE which ran from 2004 to 2010, following young people from the age of 13/14 to 19/20. LSYPE2 began in 2013 and has commenced annually until 2021, covering ages 13/14 (Year 9) to 21/22 years old. The aims of the study are: • to follow a sample of young people through the final years of compulsory education. • to follow their transition from compulsory education to other forms of education, training, employment and other activities. • to collect information about their career paths and about the factors affecting them. • to provide a strategic evidence base about the lives and experiences of young people.
