NEETS: A Massive Consequence of our broken education and welfare/family systems.
No comment needed from me … from Newshub today.
“In the year to March, 12.4 per cent of people aged 15 to 24 were not in employment, education or training (NEET), and 14.2 percent of women. That was up from 10.9 percent in total in March 2023, and 11.5 percent for women.
For those aged 20 to 24, the rate was higher – more than 18 percent of women in this age bracket were NEET, up 27 percent year-on-year.
Northland had the highest NEET rate, at 16.3 percent of people aged 15 to 24, followed by Bay of Plenty, at 16.2 percent.”
