Notes

Providers in Wales can only use codes 0, 1, 2 and 5.

Students funded by DfE(NI) on courses leading to eligibility to teach in Northern Ireland should be coded 1 in this field.

Code 1 includes PGCE, BEd, first degree with Qualified Teacher Status and courses leading concurrently to a degree and to a diploma in Education.

Code 2 includes courses leading to Further Education Teacher Qualification and to Nursing and Midwifery Teacher Qualification. FE courses will be specifically identified in Course.ITTPHSC code 31 'Further education'.

Code 5: DfE and Office for Students have given a working definition of an INSET course as follows:

An INSET/In-service course is one for which the primary (but not necessarily the only) purpose is to improve the effectiveness of teachers, lecturers or trainers. In considering whether this is the purpose of particular course, providers may wish to consider the content of the course and course literature, including prospectuses and any other marketing material.

Providers are not expected to return a record to HESA for students on employment-based routes (e.g. GTP, OTT and RTP). The DfE collects this data via the Employment Based Routes Data Management System (EBRDMS).

Masters in Teaching and Learning (MTL) students must be coded 9 'Other DfE funded provision not elsewhere specified' in this field. MTL students must be identified as such using the M02 code in Course.COURSEAIM field.

Early Years Initial Teacher Training (EYITT) programmes

Further guidance on the coding requirements for those on EYITT programmes may be found in the 'Further guidance about Early Years Initial Teacher Training (EYITT) programmes' document.
