This field provides an indication of the degree of completion of the learning activities leading to the qualification aim.

All instances where (Instance.FESTUMK = 1, 3, 4 or 5) and (Instance.REDUCEDI = 00 or 01) except where ((Instance.FUNDMODEL = 36 or Instance.PROGTYPE = 25) and Institution.ILRGEN = 1).

Code 2 must only be used for the Apprenticeship Standard programme aim where both the training and end point assessment activities have been completed.

Code 4 'The student has transferred to a new qualification aim. That is the student has withdrawn from this qualification aim & as a direct result has at the same time started studying for another qualification aim' is only valid for providers in Wales.

Code 6 'Learner has temporarily withdrawn from the aim due to an agreed break in learning' is only valid for providers in England.

Code 6 should be used in circumstances where the learner is taking an agreed break in learning and is planning to return, for example, for sick leave or maternity leave.

When a learner studying at an FE level returns from an agreed break in learning, a new instance should be created.

Where a learner does not return from an agreed break in learning this field should be changed to code 3 – withdrawn.

For 16-19 funded learners (FUNDMODEL 25 or 82) breaks in learning are not recorded.
