This Cedefop study focuses on the contribution that vocational education and training (VET) can make to reducing early leaving from education and training (ELET).
Published in two volumes, the first is dedicated to understanding better the learning pathways of young students, providing measurements of early leaving in VET, and understanding the role of VET in breaking the vicious cycle of early leaving and unemployment. This second volume reviews VET-related measures to tackle ELET, either by preventing learners dropping out and/or by bringing those who have already left back to education and training. This volume identifies and discusses the key features of successful policies and practices, plus the conditions necessary to evaluate and upscale successful regional and local practices to national strategies.

Children missing from education
This publication from OfSTED (HMI: 100041) evaluates the effectiveness of actions taken by local authorities in relation to children and young people who are missing from education.
It considers whether legislation and guidance effectively support the authorities in protecting them.
Children and young people who are not receiving education and whose whereabouts are unknown may be particularly at risk of physical, emotional and psychological harm.

California Dropout Research Project
from Librarians' Internet Index
"The purpose of this project is to synthesize existing research and undertake new research to inform policymakers and the larger public about the nature of -- and potential solutions to -- the [high school] dropout problem in California."
Features statistical briefs and research reports on topics such as which California school districts have the most dropouts, and alternative pathways to high school graduation. An affiliated project of the University of California Linguistic Minority Research Institute.
Please, please go and read this for yourself. Why the project? makes clear that California thinks it has "an educational crisis". The UK is obviously not the only place on earth that is suffering from the effects of young people leaving the compulsory education system without having been educated.
