This information is used by the Scottish Government in projections and planning for the sector and analysis of trends in the take-up of higher education. Knowing the year left last provider helps with the matching of students to their previous study details at another provider. Information about articulating students is required by the Scottish Government who wish to compare educational outcomes for those students moving without a gap into a course at a HEP and those who have left a gap of a year or more. |
