Notes |
Code 5 'Not coded' is an acceptable default code for use in this field unless otherwise indicated by the institution's funding council. Institutions in Wales must not use code 5. Institutions in England are encouraged to complete module information on the Student Record, to enable HEFCE to take this information into account in the future distribution of funding. Code 6 should normally only be used where students have modules which genuinely span 3 reporting years. This is likely to be relatively rare, and will most likely be relevant to Postgraduate research students where a single module is being used to represent a programme of study. For Welsh HEIs, the status of an APEL module (coded as StudentOnModule.APEL = 1, 2) can either be as for the same module not taken through APEL if the assessment is taken at the same time as other enrolments on that module, or, if the assessment takes place in a particular period it can reflect whether that period of time is contained within a reporting year or spans reporting years, as appropriate. |
