The number of international students approved to study in New Zealand dropped in the last financial year.

The Department of Labour has released its migration trends report for the year through to the end of March.

It shows more than 56,000 international students were approved to study during that time, a seven percent decrease from the previous year.

China is the largest source of international students on 26 percent, followed by India at 13 percent and South Korea on 10 percent.
