05 January 2024 - Archived September 2022 datafiles were updated to include a provider that was registered by the OfS after September 2022 and participated in TEF 2023.
16 June 2023 - Updated with a correction to counts of students in qualifier contextual populations. A methodological oversight meant that a qualifier who was (correctly) not included in the all students contextual population for a given year (on account of their course following an academic year which spans multiple data reporting periods, for example, to avoid double counting), was unintentionally excluded from the qualifiers contextual population.
12 April 2023 - Updated with annual release of data
