Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many people in Nottinghamshire were employed by universities in (a) 2020, (b) 2015, (c) 2010, (d) 2000 and (e) 1990.
Answered by Janet Daby - Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Department for Education)
The Higher Education Statistics Agency is responsible for collecting and publishing data on the UK higher education (HE) sector. These data are shared with the department and include a wide range of information on staff working at UK HE providers.
Information on the home addresses of HE staff, however, is not collected, therefore those living in Nottinghamshire and employed by UK HE providers, cannot be identified by the department.
The staff numbers by HE provider for the 2014/15 to 2023/24 academic years are accessible at: https://www.hesa.ac.uk/data-and-analysis/staff/table-24. This information can be used to determine the number of staff working for HE providers that are based in Nottinghamshire, although the department is not able to determine whether these staff also reside in Nottinghamshire.

Based on the latest published Ofsted inspection data, at the end of December 2024 there were:
