@jesscuming thanks for this very interesting question Jess. We do capture the number o young people arriving with no qualifications - 18% last year but we don't have any stats about literacy. We will look into it !

I think it would be really interesting to consider the language needs of the people you support as can be missed and a high percentage of the prison population have unidentified language needs.
