The Tables have been compiled by the Higher Education Funding Council and describe the number of Foundation Degree entrants (Table 1) and Qualifiers (Table 2) and those who transfer from HEIs to honours degree level (Table 3a and 3b). The Higher Education Funding Council (HEFCE) has derived these figures from the HESA standard population (HEIs) and the equivalent population at Further Education Colleges (FECs). Some of the data has been published in the 2010 HEFCE report “Foundation Degree: Key statistics 2001/02 to 2009/10”. <a href="http://www.hefce.ac.uk/media/hefce/content/pubs/2010/201012/10_12.pdf" target="_blank">http://www.hefce.ac.uk/media/hefce/content/pubs/2010/201012/10_12.pdf</a>).</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>It has not been possible for HEFCE to complete time series data for FECs for all years because of the disproportionate cost in providing this analysis.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Table 1 - Foundation Degree entrants</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The number and proportion of UK-domiciled foundation degree entrants at Higher Education Institutions and Further Education Colleges in England between 2004/05 and 2012/13, split by the type of registering institution.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><p><strong>Number of foundation degree entrants (UK-domiciled foundation degree entrants at HEIs and FECs in England)</strong></p><p> </p><p>Full person equivalent (FPE) numbers, which have been rounded to the nearest 5</p><p> </p><p>2012-13 data is provisional and subject to change <strong> </strong><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><table><tbody><tr><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td colspan="4"><p><strong>Type of registering institution</strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td><td colspan="2"><p><strong>HEI</strong></p></td><td colspan="2"><p><strong>FEC</strong></p></td><td><p><strong> </strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p><strong>Year of entry</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Number</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Percentage</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Number</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Percentage</strong></p></td><td><p><strong>Total</strong></p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2004-05</p></td><td><p>14,785</p></td><td><p>75%</p></td><td><p>4,800</p></td><td><p>25%</p></td><td><p>19,585</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2005-06</p></td><td><p>20,750</p></td><td><p>77%</p></td><td><p>6,180</p></td><td><p>23%</p></td><td><p>26,930</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2006-07</p></td><td><p>24,510</p></td><td><p>73%</p></td><td><p>8,325</p></td><td><p>25%</p></td><td><p>33,735</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2007-08</p></td><td><p>31,370</p></td><td><p>77%</p></td><td><p>9,400</p></td><td><p>23%</p></td><td><p>40,770</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2008-09</p></td><td><p>35,600</p></td><td><p>75%</p></td><td><p>11,900</p></td><td><p>25%</p></td><td><p>47,495</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2009-10</p></td><td><p>38,865</p></td><td><p>71%</p></td><td><p>14,200</p></td><td><p>26%</p></td><td><p>54,950</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2010-11</p></td><td><p>35,685</p></td><td><p>71%</p></td><td><p>13,125</p></td><td><p>26%</p></td><td><p>49,920</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2011-12</p></td><td><p>33,845</p></td><td><p>70%</p></td><td><p>13,770</p></td><td><p>28%</p></td><td><p>48,350</p></td></tr><tr><td><p>2012-13</p></td><td><p>21,090</p></td><td><p>59%</p></td><td><p>14,150</p></td><td><p>40%</p></td><td><p>35,700</p></td></tr></tbody></table><p> </p><p>Source: HEFCE analysis of the HESA standard registration population at English HEIs, and the equivalent population at English further education colleges, 2005-06 to 2012-13</p><p> </p><p>Note:</p><p> </p><p>1.
