Footnotes

  1. Age is based on age as at 31 August of the academic year.
  2. Entry Level figures include pre-entry level essential skills aims.
  3. Geographies are taken from the National Statistics Postcode Lookup.
  4. Geography is based upon the home postcode of the learner. Where the postcode is outside of an English devolved area or not known it is included in the 'Outside of an English Devolved Area and unknown' category.
  5. Total achievements are the count of learners that achieved at any point during the stated academic period. Learners achieving more than one course will appear only once in the grand total.
  6. Total participation is the count of learners that participated at any point during the stated academic period. Learners undertaking more than one course will appear only once in the grand total.
  7. Volumes are rounded to the nearest 10 and 'low' indicates a base value of fewer than 5. Where data shows 'x' this indicates data is unavailable, 'z' indicates data is not applicable, and 'c' indicates data is suppressed.
