Vocational and other Qualifications Quarterly

In this bulletin we present data on achievements for all regulated qualifications (excluding GCSEs, GCEs and the Diploma and its components) in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.  There is some overlap between the figures in this bulletin and both the Higher Qualifications Quarterly (which covers all qualifications at Level 4 and above) and the Supplemental Qualifications Quarterly (which covers covers entry to level 3 for basic skills, entry level, English for Speakers of Other Languages, free-standing mathematics qualifications, functional skills, key skills and other general qualifications).  Until April to June 2012, this bulletin was previously known as the Vocational Qualifications Quarterly.
