Abstract
This paper examines the proposition that the outcomes of employment‐related initiatives depend on ways in which they relate to the broader context of provision and to patterns of occupational and educational selection. Using data from the 16‐19 Initiative and linked studies, institutional arrangements for the education of 16‐19 year olds in contrasting local education authorities are compared. Relationships between the structures of provision and patterns of educational and training participation and progression will be explored. Finally, comparisons between the ‘mixed’ model of 16‐19 provision as it operates in the UK and the ‘schooling’ models of North America are discussed, with reference to future policy options.
