The Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA) collects and publishes statistics on higher education (HE) at UK HE providers. Latest statistics refer to the 2021/22 academic year.

Table 11 of HESA’s Student Data resources shows the number of HE student enrolments by domicile and region of HE provider, and can be found at: https://www.hesa.ac.uk/data-and-analysis/students/table-11. The table shows that there were 20 student enrolments[1] at UK HE providers in the 2021/22 academic year who were domiciled in St Helena, Ascension, and Tristan da Cunha prior to their studies. Figures are not disaggregated specifically for Tristan da Cunha.

[1] Figures have been rounded to the nearest five, in line with HESA rounding conventions. More information on rounding and suppression strategy can be found at the following link: https://www.hesa.ac.uk/support/definitions/students#rounding-and-suppression-strategy.
