This was due to an error in processing the Ethnicity categories of learners.  The main qualification success rates in the reports were not affected by this error.  We have also republished the Learner Responsive data extract. This was due to an error in which QCF units (which are excluded from qualification success rates in 2010/11) were appearing in provider data extracts.  The Learner Responsive QSR reports were not affected by this error.
