Abstract: This technical report provides more detail on the accompanying summary report, "The Tech Pipeline: Investigating Educational Pathways into the Tech Sector in England," and is part of a suite of reports on changes in UK tech hiring, future opportunities in the sector, education pathways into tech jobs, and diversity in the tech pipeline and workforce. This report analyses data from the Longitudinal Educational Outcomes database (LEO), the National Pupil Database (NPD), the Individualised Learner Record (ILR), and the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) to examine how educational pathways (including educational choices and achievement) support entry into the tech workforce. It uses data from the LEO and the Annual Population Survey (APS) to find out to what extent there are disparities between different groups (by disadvantage, ethnicity and gender) in entry, progression, and earnings into the tech workforce.
