Version 1.0 Produced 2010-03-15

This document summarises the main changes in the 2010/11 Student record from the 2009/10 Student record. Note that changes after the first release of documentation (i.e. from version 1.0) are detailed in the Revision history.

Summary of changes

1. Student.DISABLE
   With the introduction of the Disability Equality Duty, and on the recommendation of the Equality Challenge Unit (ECU), HESA has introduced a new version of the coding frame. Codes 51, 53, 54, 55 and 56 have been added to the valid entries list for 2010/11 entrants onwards. HESA will continue to accept codes 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 10, 11, 97, 98 and 99 for continuing students, so there will be no requirement for institutions to resurvey or recode. However, institutions are welcome to use the new codes for continuing students if they wish to do so.

2. EntryProfile.QUALENT3
   New field, with new list of valid entries, created for Highest qualification on entry. EntryProfile.QUALENT2 is retained for continuing students, so there will be no requirement for institutions to resurvey or recode. However, institutions are welcome to use the new codes for continuing students if they wish to do so.

   The following updates have been made consequent on this change:

   Instance.COMDATE examples updated to include EntryProfile.QUALENT3
   Course.COURSEAIM guidance now includes references to EntryProfile.QUALENT3
   EntryProfile.ACCESS coverage amended to include EntryProfile.QUALENT3 X00 and X01
   Fields required for FE updated to add EntryProfile.QUALENT3 as an option
   Reduced returns updated to add EntryProfile.QUALENT3 as an option for Type 01


3. StudentOnModule.LANGPCNT
   Percentage of module taught in Celtic language has been moved from the Module entity to the StudentOnModule entity.
