Collection Requirements

Notes

• This is collected for apprenticeships funded by a contract for services with the ESFA, that start on or after 1 August 2018 and is collected at the point of enrolment (ACT2).

• This data is not collected where an apprenticeship funded by a contract for services with the employer that is on the apprenticeship service (ACT1) changes employer to become funded by the ESFA (ACT2).

• This data is not required for OLASS learners or for apprenticeship standards (ProgType 25). Where this data has been previously returned for apprenticeship standards, it can continue to be returned.

• The household situation recorded is the status that applies at the start of the learning aim or programme and does not need to be updated if it changes before the end of the learning aim.

• For apprenticeship and traineeship programmes, this data is recorded on the programme aim. It does not need to be recorded on individual component aims.

• You can record up to two HHS records. You can record either codes HHS1 or HHS2 but not both of these. Code HHS3 may then apply in addition to code HHS1.

• Refer to the Provider Support Manual for additional guidance about returning household situation codes.
