Under Condition F1 of the Office for Students (OfS) regulatory framework, higher education providers are required to publish data on student access, continuation, completion and progression. This is known as transparency data.

The purpose of this requirement is to provide clear, accessible information about how different groups of students experience higher education. By publishing this data, we support openness and accountability, helping prospective students, stakeholders and the public to understand outcomes across the student lifecycle.

This information also enables providers to identify and address inequalities in access and outcomes, contributing to a fairer and more inclusive higher education sector.
