Black and minority ethnic student achievement The proportion of students at Bath achieving a first or upper-second class degree in each academic year 2008/9 to 2012/3, grouped by ethnicity (BAME = Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic).

A complex issue A growing body of evidence confirms that ‘even after controlling for the majority of factors which we would expect to have an impact on attainment, being from a minority ethnic community…is still statistically significant in explaining final attainment’ (Broecke and Nichols, 2007:3). Ethnicity per se is almost certainly not the effective variable influencing students’ academic attainment. Rather, it is a proxy for other factors that have yet to be identified Professor John Richardson, Professor in Student Learning & Assess, Open University
