Open University: questions we get
Does GradeHack have grade data for Open University?
Not yet. The Open University is in our catalogue with 92 courses, but we don't have its FOI grade data live. Request it on any of its pages and we'll email you the moment it does.
Why only banded signals and not exact percentages?
Public pages show low / mid / high bands so small cohorts can't be re-identified and the dataset doesn't end up in someone else's training data. Exact distributions are behind a free account.
Where does the data come from?
Freedom of Information requests to the university. Cohorts under 10 students are suppressed for privacy and never published.
About this data. Figures are derived from public Freedom of Information disclosures by UK universities. We publish only aggregated, banded descriptors, never exact percentages, counts, or individual results. Cohorts under ten are suppressed and cells that could be re-identifying are withheld. Banded signals describe historical cohorts and are not a prediction of individual outcomes, nor a judgement on teaching quality. See our data sources and privacy policy.
