The ONS doesn't publish census data directly for Combined Authorities. The figures on this page are aggregated
from census areas contained within North East. They may not, therefore, be precisely accurate. Age-standardised
statistics and population density are not available for aggregated datasets.
This dataset provides Census 2021 estimates that classify usual residents aged 16 years and over in England and Wales by their highest level of qualification. The estimates are as at Census Day, 21 March 2021.
Summary
The highest level of qualification is derived from the question asking people to indicate all qualifications held, or their nearest equivalent.
This may include foreign qualifications where they were matched to the closest UK equivalent.
Quality Statement
There are quality considerations about higher education qualifications, including those at Level 4+, responses from older people and international migrants, and comparability with 2011 Census data.
Highest level of qualification: Total: All usual residents aged 16 years and over

These values are calculated by adding up the values for census output areas contained within North East.
They may, therefore, be slightly inaccurate due to administrative boundaries not precisely aligning with census boundaries.
