don't attend a tertiary instiution. As you can see, the 16 year old percentage
is going down increasingly as the months progress. This is the result of
VET courses and AUS study introduced by the federal government. |

The major trends that occur in this graph are, that percentages in recent trends
are increasing significantly for youth to stay in school. Again this is the result of VET and AUS
study programmes that the government has introduced to encourage youth to not

This graph of trends shows that in the late 90s, youth unemployment has been stabilised
due to the federal government introduced programmes that would encourage
the youth to stay at school. To keep reducing this figure they need to expand
on their existing programmes and/or introduce more. |
