Data source for 2002/03 onwards is the Individualised Learner Record. Data source
from 1997/98 to 2001/02 was the Individualised Student Record, managed by the Further
Education Funding Council. Therefore data prior to 2002/03 is not directly comparable
to later years.</p></td></tr><tr><td colspan="3"><p>2) Data for 2002/03 onwards is
