Enrolment in general upper-secondary education has fallen from 62 411 in 1999/2000 to 40 085 in 2013/14, or nearly 36% (Figure 1.29 in Chapter 1). A drop of this scale has major implications for future skills shortages in the labour market and makes minimising school dropouts and raising enrolment in VET and higher education an urgent priority. It also highlights the importance of maximising the labour market relevance of curricula. Ensuring that all young people obtain upper-secondary education is, therefore, crucial to address their labour market difficulties.
