The March Follow-Up SLDRLike-for-like Comparison•Compared with the follow-up carried out in March 2009, March 2010 showed a 1% increase in EL young people in positive destinations

•The national trend was an increase of 1.1% compared to the same time last year thus we are improving at the national rate.

•The national figure for yps in positive destinations in March 2010 was 85.1%; our figure was 83.3% thus whilst we are improving at the national rate, we are still behind in the total.

The March Follow-Up SLDRSustainability over 9 Months

•Compared with the SLDR 2008/2009 collected in Sept 09 – for which this was a follow up – we have a 0.1% decrease in yps in a positive destination (83.4% in Sept 2009; 83.3% in March 2010)

•The national trend showed a decrease of 0.6% in yps in a positive destination from September 2009 to March 2010 thus we are 0.5% above the national trend regarding sustainability (again, our total remains lower but our rate of sustainability is higher).
