The future of post-16 qualifications 9 at the earliest opportunity. While Department destination measures are usually published two years following the completion of 16–18 study, we recommend the Department fast-track this data, providing an interim picture ahead of the expected official publication in 2024. (Paragraph 45) The Department already makes destination data available at the earliest opportunity. It is not possible to fast-track the publication of destination data as it is matched with data from a range of other sources, and accelerating this process this would result in incomplete destination information. The Technical Education Learner Survey (commissioned by DfE) is tracking the destinations of the first 2 T Level cohorts and we will be publishing the findings from the first cohort (1 year after completion) in late 2023 / early 2024.
