Notes:
1. Student numbers are based on Actual student numbers (headcount) registered to credit bearing courses on December 1 each year.
2. In 2006/07 the transfer of the Centre for Legal Practice from Exeter resulted in a reduction of PGT numbers and a reduction in the part time DLL provision reduced the undergraduate numbers.
