(These figures are the latest annual figures available, and show the employment destinations in the East of England only. They are rounded to the nearest five. Higher education leavers may also have gone to further study, voluntary work or unemployment – this is not presented in these tables. We have not included data for the following sectors (because of the very low numbers in the raw data: agriculture and forestry, electricity, gas and water supply, employment in private households, and with international organisations.)
