Young participation by area

These pages show our different measures of young participation in higher education by local areas.

They look at how likely young people are to participate in higher education across the UK and show how this varies by area.

What can I find on these pages?

These pages look at two area-based measures of young participation: POLAR (the participation of local areas) and our newer measure called TUNDRA (tracking underrepresentation by area).
We have also published all the data which underlies the different measures and the searchable tools.
