I propose to take Questions Nos. 94 and 96 together.

Please find attached requested data for academic years 2019–2022.

Please note that we expect to publish final data for academic year 2023/24 shortly and we will revert to the deputy with the data for 2023/24 when it has been published.

Please note enrolment data is taken from the POD and PPOD databases as per the annual published school lists which can be found at the link below. All enrolments are as per the census date, 30th September, for each year.
