Notes

This field must be completed for all learning aims that have a completion status of withdrawn.

Code 41 should be used to identify where a learner has transferred to another provider into learning that aligns with a specific government strategy. This code should only be used for learners who withdraw from an 16-19 (excluding Apprenticeships) funded study programme or Adult skills funded learning in order to take up an apprenticeship programme, traineeship or Supported Internship.

The use of code 41 will not be audited, however it will be closely monitored to ensure it is being used appropriately. The data will be used to exclude the aims from the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA)'s achievement rate calculations and the learner from DfE's completion and attainment measure.
