The request

• The number of students studying A100 medicine.
• The number of students studying A100 medicine who have declared that they are dyslexic, for the academic years 2023 and 2013.

º£½ÇÉçÇø's response, IMPFOI-24-290, 2 July 2024

The total number of students studying A100 Medicine is 2072.

The number of A100 students declaring they have a “Learning difference such as dyslexia, dyspraxia or AD(H)D” (this is a HESA definition) in 2013 was 49 and in 2023 was 94. The increase may be partly due to the fact that in 2013 we recorded only those disabilities that were declared on the students’ application, as opposed to asking them on enrolment. We now ask on enrolment and a value must be entered, even if that is “Prefer not to say”.

The request

I would be grateful if you could provide:

1. Number of male and female students in each year of study (Years 1–5), presented separately by gender.
2. Ethnic breakdown of male and female students, listed by ethnicity (e.g., British, Asian, Black, Mixed, Other, etc.), with the number of students for each category provided separately for each gender.
3. In the past 5 years, how many males and females have graduated with a medical degree from ICL. Please provide this number separately
