Abstract

The COVID Social Mobility & Opportunities study (COSMO) seeks to generate highquality evidence to answer the central research question of how the COVID-19 pandemic affects socio-economic inequalities in life chances, both in terms of short-term effects on educational attainment and well-being, and long-term educational and career outcomes. To achieve this aim, a representative sample of young people who were in Year 11 in the 2020/2021 academic year across England were invited to a survey between September 2021 and April 2022, with the intention of following them over time as they progress through the final stages of education and into the labour market. The study also included a survey with a parent or guardian1 of the young person to complement the young person’s data. All young people and parents who took part in Wave 1 were invited to the second Wave of the study. In Wave 1, there were some young people whose parents did not take part. In Wave 2, we invited these parents again, to help enrich background information for more young people in the sample. Wave 2 focussed on how young people’s lives have changed since the first wave in terms of their educational or vocational activities, and their future plans. Parents were also asked how they are getting on, including topics like the cost of living.
