Interpretation

Starts are the count of apprenticeships started at any point during the stated academic period. Learners starting more than one apprenticeship will appear more than once.

Geography is based upon the home postcode of the learner.

Figures for all academic years cover the twelve months (Aug to Jul) and are final full year figures.

Figures produced by each UK nation may differ due to differing sources, time periods, age analysed or differences in methodologies so they are not directly comparable.
