Notes

For taught students, this should include any planned assessment periods but not retakes.

This field must be updated where there are any changes to the expected end date of the Engagement. Examples will include but are not limited to:



  • Students transferring between courses with different expected end dates

  • Students deciding to take or not take a sandwich placement

  • Students taking an agreed break in learning

  • Students needing to resit part of their course
