Additional information

The UK Provider Reference Number (UKPRN) is submitted by higher education providers (HEPs) in all HESA collections. This derived field will add HESA's own internal higher education provider identifier to relevant datasets, as listed in Data Management's HEP specification for each collection, to allow linking between streams and collections. As the HEP constituency of each collection may differ, the list of valid entries listed in this field may not be applicable to all collections.

XINSTID01 is not derived for the KIS (Cyy061) collection. Therefore the list of valid entries excludes HEPs that are a constituent, for HESA, of only this collection (known as submitting a 'KIS course only'). If a KIS course only HEP is subsequently added to other collection's constituencies it will be added to the list of valid entries for XINSTID01.

The mapping to a HESA higher education provider identifier is carried out through the use of a static data lookup table (see technical specification, below), supplied by Data Management. From 2014/15 the lookup has switched from the previous UKPRN_LOOKUP table to the INSTHQPC_LOOKUP table. The values of UKPRN are taken from UK Register of Learning Providers (http://www.ukrlp.co.uk/ukrlp.first).

DEFINITION

Each HEP in the collection will submit a UKPRN. Where specified, this is mapped using a static data lookup table to a HESA higher education provider identifier and returned in XINSTID01.

Technical Specification

Where this specification exists for a collection, XINSTID01 is added against each HEP - using a value held within the HESA Data Management static data lookup table in Oracle. If no match is made between the collection's UKPRN and a UKPRN held in the static data lookup table the function will output an invalid null value.

Please note: In the following specification, the table suffix '_(Y2)AUG' refers to a year-specific reference derived from the reporting year. For 2013/14, Y1 is 13 and Y2 is 14, thus for 2013/14 the table suffix would be 14AUG, and for 2014/15 the suffix would be 15AUG, and so on.

1. Where the UKPRN value is found in the static data lookup table F_UKPRN, return F_HHESA as XINSTID01.

2. Where the UKPRN value is not found in the static data lookup table F_UKPRN, return Null as XINSTID01. This is an error, highlighting that a value in the collection's UKPRN field is not contained in the static_data lookup table F_UKPRN column. This is designed so the derived function does not fail. Nulls are to be identified at impossible values testing to flag the issue to HESA's Data Management team.

STATIC_DATA.INSTHQPC_LOOKUP_(Y2)AUG table consists of 8 columns:
Column Description
F_HHESA HESA higher education provider identifier
F_OPOSTCODE Full postcode of higher education provider HQ
F_XDOMUC01 County/unitary authority of higher education provider
F_GOR Region of higher education provider
F_CTRY Country of higher education provider
F_CTRY_ISO Country of higher education provider (2-letter ISO-3166-1 format)
F_UKPRN UK Provider Reference Number
F_XPROVTYPE01 Flag to identify the the type of provider e.g HEI or AP
F_XPARTCAT01 Flag to identify the groups of collections to which a provider submits data
UKPRN (as submitted in each collection) XINSTID01 (CHAR 4)
1. Found in static_data.insthqpc_lookup_(Y2)aug.F_UKPRN static_data.insthqpc_lookup_(Y2)aug.F_HHESA
2. Not found in static_data.insthqpc_lookup_(Y2)aug.F_UKPRN Null
