49% of CAP (ISCED level 35 qualification) to BTS (ISCED level 5 qualification) level high school students in their final year of a vocational course in 2019-2020 are still in training the following school year, 3 points more than the previous generation enrolled in 2018-2019. Among those not pursuing studies, 36% are in paid employment in France in January 2021, 6 months after leaving school (-1 point compared to the generation leaving one year earlier). In the context of the Covid crisis, the employment rate at 6 months decreases by 5 points compared to the generation leaving in 2019. In January 2021, the entry of young people into the labour market was particularly difficult for those leaving from training in specialities affected by the health crisis, such as “hotel, restaurant and tourism” and “hairdressing”.
