Analysis of degree classifications over time: Changes in graduate attainment from 2010-11 to 2020-21
This report sets out the results of our analysis of changes in the proportion of first and upper second class degrees awarded between 2010-11 and 2020-21. We report on how graduate attainment has changed over this period, and the extent to which these changes can be statistically accounted for by changes in certain characteristics of the graduate population. This analysis has been undertaken at both the sector level and the provider level.
