Office for Students transparency information

Recruitment and achievement

Widening access to and participation in Higher Education is an important priority for the sector. To support this priority, The Office for Students requires institutions to be more transparent with data on achievement; to highlight areas of low participation and achievement as well as areas of success. The following information is available on this page:

• The number of students who attained a particular degree or other academic award, or a particular level of such an award, on completion of their course with us.

It also shows these numbers by reference to: 

• The sex of the individuals to which they relate
• Their ethnicity
• Their socio-economic background.
