''Women attending higher education institutions outside London/Oxford/Cambridge are noted as and when we came across information relating to degree status by the methods identified above. The Institute of Historical Research Library holds printed historical registers of students for several institutions – thus far, we have consulted only the register for the University of Manchester, as there were a few women in our database who were listed as attending that university.'' | ''Women attending higher education institutions outside London/Oxford/Cambridge are noted as and when we came across information relating to degree status by the methods identified above.

''By and large the project has not focused on the secondary education of women. An exception to this is students of Notting Hill High School, which has digitised both its admissions registers and its school magazine (which kept track of old students), and was a rich source of information on the working lives and residences of former NHHS students. Secondary school information (whether formal or informal) is frequently given in the historical registers of Oxford and Cambridge colleges and in the manuscript admissions registers at Newnham and Girton, but the team has not focused on including secondary school information in the database. We also created a property [https://beyond-notability.wikibase.cloud/wiki/Item:Q2485 alternative educational provision] for women who for example are noted as having governesses, private tuition, or having been educated in some way abroad. This property has not been used universally in the database to note any form of informal education, rather, it has been applied only when we have come across the appropriate evidence. It should therefore be assumed that the majority of women in our database would have had some form of primary and potentially secondary education according to the education legislation in place during the period of our project.'' | ''By and large the project has not focused on the secondary education of women.
