Interpretation

Geography is based upon the home postcode of the learner.

From 2013/14 to 2017/18, Modern Apprenticeship (MA) data was reported by Scottish Vocational Qualification (SVQ) level (2, 3, 4 and 5). From 2018/19, SDS began to phase out reporting by SVQ level to instead report by the Scottish Credit and Qualifications Framework (SCQF) levels. Therefore from 2018/19, any data relating to MA starts is reported by SCQF level only, with residual data including both SVQ and SCQF levels. Please refer back to the Modern Apprenticeship Statistics user guide for more information.

The Scotland population time series data is used to create a rate per 100,000 population and are currently available for the years up to mid-2024.

Figures produced by each UK nation may differ due to differing sources, time periods, age analysed or differences in methodologies so they are not directly comparable.
