Description
Data
Bar Chart
Pie Chart

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.

More information at the ONS website

Highest level of qualification: Total: All usual residents aged 16 years and over	123,885
No qualifications	26,084
Level 1 and entry level qualifications	14,743
Level 2 qualifications	17,916
Apprenticeship	7,815
Level 3 qualifications	20,463
Level 4 qualifications and above	33,031
Other qualifications	3,833

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