The Social Mobility Commission awarded a contract to the National Learning and Work Institute for an evidence synthesis on the impact of COVID-19 on young people across the UK.

The project aimed to establish a rapid evidence base on how young people affected by poverty or with poor social mobility prospects experienced the crisis, including effects on education, employment, wellbeing, and mental health, with attention to differences across the four nations and among disabled young people, young women, and minority ethnic groups.

The synthesis was intended to inform policy recommendations for the UK and Scottish governments.

The contract value was £49,690.
