Answered by Satvir Kaur
The data is provided in the table below. Data prior to the 2025/26 intake on non-completion is only available as a combined figure. The 2025/26 intake began delivery in October 2025, and will complete in September 2026, so completion data is not yet available. Only a combined withdrawals and removals figure can be provided for the 2025/26 intake due to the suppression of low removal numbers potentially making candidates identifiable.
Beyond Boundaries Intake year | Enrolled | Completed Programme | Combined Non-Completions | Completion Percentage |
2023/24 | 568 | 503 | 65 | 88.6% |
2024/25 | 634 | 563 | 71 | 88.8% |
2025/26 | 794 | ongoing | 31 (as of 23/2/26) | - |
