Our interactive map allows you to explore access to opportunity for disadvantaged young people in different constituencies across England.
The map is based on our Opportunity Index, which ranks constituencies according to a range of measures by school attainment, access to higher education, employment status and earnings of young people eligible for free school meals (FSM) at secondary school.
Display the data for an individual constituency by clicking within the boundary.
You can browse the % of pupils on FSM who achieve passes in English and maths, the % of FSM pupils who complete a degree by age 22, the % of FSM pupils who are in the top 20% of earners at age 28, as well as how many pupils move away from their region by age 28.
You can also see their ranking on our Opportunity Index. The colour of the constituency reflects their score, with green showing constituencies with high levels of opportunity in comparison to other areas, and red showing low levels.

The interactive chart below presents the proportion of FSM pupils in each constituency. The table below also provides information on the proportion who make it as a top earner by age 28.

Notes:
The Opportunity Index has been calculated by considering six key indicators of social mobility across the life course:
- School: Attainment 8.
- Post-16: A Level APS result.
- Post-16: Percentage in sustained education/employment after KS4.
- Post-18: Percentage with degree by age 22.
- Employment: average earning at age 28.
- Employment: Percentage in sustained employment at age 28.
