§ Mr. Jon Owen JonesTo ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills (1) what percentage of non-European Union students at(a) further education colleges and (b) universities successfully completed their courses for each of the last five years for which figures are available; [131725]
(2) if he will list the 50 universities with the lowest percentage of non-European Union students successfully completing their courses, giving the percentage for each institution in the last year for which figures are available. [131726]
§ Alan JohnsonThe information requested is not held centrally.
For universities and other HE sector institutions, the available information on non-completion rates is published by the Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) in "Performance Indicators in Higher Education in the UK", but this information covers UK domiciled students only.
For the FE sector, the Learning and Skills Council (LSC) only publish success, retention and achievement rates for those learners funded by the council in further education colleges and external institutions in England. However, the majority of learners from countries outside of the European Union are not funded by the LSC—so figures are not available. Furthermore, the LSC do not publish further education institution success, retention and achievement rates based on less than 500 learners as they can be misleading. In 2001/02, less than 15 further education institutions in England had more than 500 LSC funded non-European Union students.
