Notes

This field contains the subset of codes applicable to Initial Teacher Training Courses in England from the CourseSubject.SBJCA field in the Student record.

When more than one subject is returned the tags surrounding the main subject code should include the attribute Main="1". For example if the subjects of the teaching qualification gained are French and History, with French as the main subject, then French should be returned as: <SBJCA Main="1">R100</SBJCA>

For initial teacher training students in England

The TDA needs to be able to link ITT students in England to the intake target from which the TDA has allocated numbers. In addition, only a subset of JACS codes are appropriate for ITT programmes. The TDA wants to ensure that only appropriate subjects are recorded. At institutions in England students identified as being initial teacher training students (codes 1 or 8 in Student.TTCID) must be coded using this subset of JACS. Further details are given below.

Primary ITT Programmes (i.e. Student.ITTPHSC 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76 and 77)

Revised Standards for Qualified Teacher Status and revised Requirements for Initial Teacher Training took effect from September 2007 The new standards can be viewed on the TDA web site.

The Training and Development Agency for Schools has published a handbook of guidance and support which is available on the TDA web site.

The requirement on primary programmes to train students in at least one specialism is no longer compulsory.

Students commencing programmes of study after 1 September 2002 who choose not to study a primary specialism should use code X120 in this field.

Where trainees continue to study a primary specialism, a valid JACS code should be used in this field as follows:

No primary specialism X120 (code available for students commencing programme of study after 1 September 2002 only)

Where the specialism is not restricted to a subject e.g. humanities, JACS code Y000 may be used in this field.

Institutions should ensure that codes relating to the subject the student is funded for are returned. Any institution wishing to enter a code not included in the current subject list should contact the TDA directly.

Secondary ITT Programmes and ITT Programmes Covering the 7-14 and 9-14 Age Range (i.e. Student.ITTPHSC codes 78, 79, 80, 81 or 82)

All programmes must train students in at least one specialism. It is essential that this specialism corresponds to the target from which the TDA has allocated numbers. Some Programmes will train students to teach additional specialisms.

For the specialisms:

The table below sets out the list of subjects appropriate to secondary ITT programmes with corresponding JACS codes.
