Students are summed from the ministry's enrolment file, which gives students by sex, institution and field of study in several rows each; all rows are counted. A dash means the file has no rows for that institution that year — not that it had no students.
The files label their years 2021, 2022 and 2023. We read them as the academic years 2020/21, 2021/22, 2022/23: each year's total runs 1–2% above the ministry's own published count of regular students for that academic year (2020/21: 232,614 here, 228,670 published; 2021/22: 256,564 here, 253,219 published; 2022/23: 260,647 here, 257,511 published), and teaching staff match its full-time teaching staff to within five people each year. That reading is ours; the files don't state it.
