Notes
-
Coding should be consistent with the allocation of the learner in the OfS HESES return.
-
For full guidance about this field, please refer to the HESA specification.
-
For full-time learners 'long' refers to any programme of study with programme year of at least 45 weeks.
-
For part-time learners the length of the programme year of a comparable full-time course should be used in determining 'longness'.
-
Code 99, 'Not in the HESES population', can be used if the reporting period does not contain, in part or in whole, a year of programme of study which has previously, is, or will be returned to HESES. However, providers can also use the other codes for such records.
