Figures include the Open university but exclude those on writing up, sabbatical or dormant modes of study. 2 Figures for London Government office region include double counting as entrants from Bexleyheath and Crayford will also be included in the London Government office region figures. 3 Figures for 1997/98 exclude the Open university because there are no figures available for entrants to undergraduate courses at the Open university by local authority for this year. 4 The increase in entrants between 2004/05 and 2005/06 may be greater than in reality as a consequence of a problem identified with data submitted by the Open university (OU) in the 2004/05 academic year.
