Notes

(1) Data source is the Individualised Learner Record (ILR).

(2) Figures are rounded to the nearest 100.

(3) Learners starting more than one apprenticeship will appear more than once.

(4) Apprenticeship starts include all funded and unfunded learners as reported on the ILR.

Finalised figures covering January to July 2020 are due to be published in our next ‘Apprenticeships and traineeships’ statistics publication, later this month. The exact publication date will be announced on GOV.UK soon. The first available data for the 2020/21 academic year (covering August to October 2020) will not be published until January 2021.
