Description
Data
Bar Chart
Pie ChartThis 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 | 221,628 |
|---|---|
| No qualifications | 38,239 |
| Level 1 and entry level qualifications | 21,655 |
| Level 2 qualifications | 31,147 |
| Apprenticeship | 16,034 |
| Level 3 qualifications | 48,003 |
| Level 4 qualifications and above | 61,186 |
| Other qualifications | 5,364 |
These values are calculated by adding up the values for census output areas contained within Plymouth. They may, therefore, be slightly inaccurate due to administrative boundaries not precisely aligning with census boundaries.
