This field identifies the reason why the learner has withdrawn from the learning aim

All instances at institutions in England where (Instance.FESTUMK = 1, 3 or 4) and (Instance.REDUCEDI = 00 or 01) and (Instance.PROGTYPE = (02, 03, 10, 20 or 21) or (Instance.FUNDMODEL is between 21 and 82 inclusive) and Instance.CSTAT = 3.

This field must be completed for all learning aims that have a completion status of withdrawn, apart from ASL (Instance.FUNDMODEL = 10) and non-Apprenticeship non-funded learning aims where it is optional.

This field has been made available for non-funded Apprenticeship learners. It does not need to be recorded for any other type of non-funded learning.

Code 41 ‘The learner has transferred to another provider to undertake learning that meets a specific government strategy’ has been added for 2012/13 at the request of the Skills Funding Agency, to identify where a learner has transferred to another provider into learning that aligns with a specific government strategy. For 2012/13, this should only be used to identify learners who have transferred onto Apprenticeship provision as inferred in "Investing in Skills for Sustainable Growth (BIS, Nov 2010)".

The use of code 41 will not be audited, however it will be closely monitored to ensure it is being used appropriately. The Skills Funding Agency intends to exclude this type of transfer from their success rate calculations but the Education Funding Agency (EFA) will not be making any changes to their current methodology.

Code 40 ‘The learner has transferred to a new learning aim with the same provider’ should be used if the learner has withdrawn from this learning aim and as a direct result has at the same time started studying for another learning aim within the same provider.

For use in performance management.
