Footnotes
- The “Other higher level” category is lower bound estimate, combining “Other higher level - Unfunded” and "Other higher level - ESFA / Adv. Learner Loan". There is likely to be some unfunded-learning in FE providers that is not recorded as it is only mandatory for providers to record information in the ILR for their ESFA-funded learners. There may also be higher level learning in the private sector that is not recorded in administrative data held by government.
- Over the last two academic years, HESA have reported a larger amount of missing permanent address information at a number of providers. Some of the missing data relates to continuing students for whom it was not possible to retrieve the information from the legacy submissions. Other missing data may be attributed to missing entry information.
- Geographies are taken from the National Statistics Postcode Lookup based on boundaries as of February 2024.
