Here are some other data:
* Indigenous tertiary enrolments at degree level and above increased by 57 % between 1997 and 2007. Postgraduate enrolments went up by 92 %.
* Indigenous commencements at degree-level and above went up by 43 % between 1997 and 2007. Lower-level commencements fell drastically.
* Most importantly, continuing enrolments (second-year and later) at degree level increased by 69 % and P-G continuations increased by 165 % between 1997 and 2007.
Pity the Bradley Review didn't pick this up. But I guess we all have our agendas.
