Note: The statistics in this publication, originally published in July 2018, were revised on 31 January 2019. Four providers identified errors in the Annual TRAC data they submitted for 2016-17, of which data for two providers affected data presented in the original publication. The changes in data are for TRAC peer group A, D and the UK sector.

 

Annual TRAC data for previous years is available on the (former) HEFCE website in the Data and statistics section.

The TRAC Development Group, which is responsible for the oversight and governance of the TRAC system, also published analysis of the annual TRAC data for 2014-15.
