This note provides an analysis of the determinants of
educational outcomes at age 16, and of subsequent pathways as school
pupils transit toward the labour market. There is some evidence that
examination results tend to be better where nondidactic teaching methods
are used, but there is little evidence to suggest that teaching method has
an independent effect on the decision to stay on in school.
Suggestions are made for further research.
