The table and charts above provide information about the destinations and employment of UK first degree holders.

Summarise the information by selecting and reporting the main features, and make comparisons where relevant.

Sample answer:

The table and charts show the study and employment choices of UK graduates over a four-year period and the annual salaries of the 2009/10 group in full-time employment.

According to the table, the pattern in graduates destinations altered very little over this period. The largest category, comprising approximately two-thirds of graduates, found full-time jobs, while 7-9 percent opted for a mix of work and further study. Approximately twice this number continued their studies, while the percentage of graduates not working ranged from 11-15 percent.

Among those 2009/10 graduates who were employed in the UK, the majority were earning between $15,000 and $25,000 per year. Female graduates in the $20,000-$25,000 salary band formed the largest group at 32 percent, and a higher percentage of women than men were employed at lower salary levels. However, 14 percent of male graduates earned $25,000-$30,000 a year compared with only 10 percent of females, and this trend continued as salaries rose.

In summary, many first-degree holders secured jobs after graduation. However, women graduates tended to earn less, on average, than their male counterparts.
