Hi Laura
We have a programme for about 80 students – as with Wendy’s, quite a few progress to higher level FE courses. If you’d like to contact me directly, I may be able to help.

Subject: research question re 16-19 year olds
Does your FE establishment have a course specifically for 16-19 year old migrant's children? If so, have you completed any research on their progression through the FE system. Have they achieved enrolment onto their chosen vocational course after their completion of the full time esol course.
I can find no research on this progression. Although these students have destination codes, I am unsure if they are actually correct. These students may be going sideways rather than forward up the academic scale. i am doing an empirical research project and any information you have would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
