"Educational Pathways and Work Outcomes of Disabled Young People in England (RPG-2020-202) is a 36-month research project funded by the Leverhulme Trust (November 2020-November 2023). The project aims to provide novel evidence surrounding educational transitions and labour market outcomes of disabled young people in England, and to investigate the whole range of mechanisms through which adolescent disability is translated into social disadvantage."
