2012 On Track Year 12 or equivalent completers destination file

The On Track Survey is conducted in April-May and involves a short telephone survey of school leavers who attended school in the previous year and who agreed to participate in the survey.

The On Track survey seeks to:

Offer a consistent and comprehensive approach to monitoring the transistions of school leavers;

Report the information to schools, TAFE institutions and other education providers, organisations concerned with assisting young people, policy makers, parents and students;

Provide detailed analyses of the transistions experienced by different groups of leavers;

Enable education providers to use the findings to monitor and improve their programs; and

Provide a referral service for school leavers who appear to be experiencing difficulties in the transistion process.  Results for individual schools are usually published in June of the survey year.
