Education Indicators in Focus
Education Indicators in Focus is a recurring series of briefs that highlight specific indicators in OECD’s Education at a Glance that are of particular interest to policy makers and practitioners. They provide a detailed look into current issues in pre-primary, primary and secondary education, higher education, and adult outcomes from a global perspective, and contain an engaging mix of text, tables and charts that describe the international context of the most pressing questions in education policy and practice.

How Difficult is it to Move from School to Work?
- In some countries, an increasing number of young people are neither in employment, nor in education or training (NEET). A high proportion of NEETs is an indicator of a difficult transition between school and work.
- Higher educational attainment eases the transition into employment.
- Demographic changes, economic conditions and cultural gender role expectations affect the transition process. But flexible school-work arrangements can have a positive impact on the transition to employment.
