§ Dr. GibsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Employment what performance indicators he will use to measure the employment of graduates. [122789]
336W
§ Mr. WicksI will consider a range of measures of employment outcomes for graduates. I will pay particular attention to the institutional-level performance measure being developed, on the advice of a working group chaired by the Higher Education Funding Council for England, which relates to full-time home students with a first degree who have newly entered the job market. The measure will be based on the percentage of these students who are unemployed at 3 January of the academic year following their graduation.
