In this table 0,1, 2 are rounded to 0. All other numbers are rounded up or down to the nearest
multiple of 5.
Percentages are calculated on unrounded data. Percentages are rounded to the nearest
whole number.
* Students with a sex of 'other' are included in total figures but not in separate breakdowns.
** Analyses of subject information show Full-person equivalent (FPE). These are derived by
splitting student instances between the different subjects that make up their course aim.
