HEIFES10 re-creation coversheet

This page provides a summary of comparisons we make in our re-creation of Higher Education in Further Education: Students Survey (HEIFES) (the HEIFES10 re-creation) which we carry out for monitoring purposes. This information is aimed at those universities responsible for making student data returns.

The 'HEIFES10 re-creation coversheet' is a table provided in the HESES10 re-creation workbook.

It includes the following comparisons of differences:

  • Total contract range grant adjustments for 2010-11 
  • Percentage of total teaching funding for 2010-11
  • Total ASN grant adjustments
  • Total student number control adjustments for 2010-11
  • Total teaching funding grant adjustments 2010-11
  • Students identified with 2010-11 undetermined completion status
  • Total widening participation (WP) funding for 2011-12 
  • Percentage of the total original 2011-12 WP funding
  • Total improving retention (IR) element of the teaching enhancement and student success (TESS) allocation 2011-12
  • Percentage of the total original 2011-12 IR element of the TESS allocation.

Total contract range grant adjustments for 2010-11

The difference is calculated by summing the ‘Contract range holdback (after June 2010 pro rata saving)’, ‘Consolidated 2009-10 contract range holdback recovered by institution (after June 2010 pro rata saving)’ in the ‘HEIFES10 grant adjustments’ report (hHBK worksheet) and subtracting from the total of the equivalent amounts in the ‘Provisional grant adjustments based on the HEIFES10 re creation’ (HBK worksheet).

Percentage of total teaching funding for 2010-11

The difference in total contract range grant adjustments for 2010-11 as a percentage of total teaching funding for 2010-11 is calculated by dividing the difference in ‘Total contract range grant adjustments for 2010-11’ by the sum of the ‘2010-11 Total teaching funding’ and taking the absolute value. This value can be found in Table A of the final issue of institutions’ 2010-11 grant tables.

Total ASN grant adjustments for 2010-11

The difference in total ASN grant adjustments for 2010-11 is calculated by summing the ‘ASN funding recovered by institution (after June 2010 pro rata saving), ‘ASN funding to be held back from institution (after June 2010 pro rata saving)’ and ‘UMF teaching funding to be held back from institution (after June 2010 pro-rata saving)’ in the ‘HEIFES10 grant adjustments’ report (hHBK worksheet) and subtracting the sum of the equivalent amounts in the ‘Provisional grant adjustments based on the HEIFES10 re creation’ (HBK worksheet).

Total student number control adjustments for 2010-11

The difference in total student number control adjustments 2010-11 is calculated by summing the ‘Provisional student number control grant adjustment’ and ‘Further reduction for 2009-10 over-recruitment’ in the ‘HEIFES10 grant adjustments’ report (hHBK worksheet) and subtracting the sum of the equivalent amounts in the ‘Provisional grant adjustments based on the HEIFES10 re-creation’ (HBK worksheet).

Total teaching funding grant adjustments 2010-11

The difference in total teaching funding grant adjustments 2010-11 is calculated by summing the difference in ‘Total contract range grant adjustments for 2010-11’, difference in ‘Total ASN grant adjustments’ and difference in ‘Total student number control adjustments for 2010-11’.

Students identified with 2010-11 undetermined completion status

Students with undetermined completion status are all HEFCE-funded students (HEFTYPE = HOMEF) that are included in the HEIFES re-creation (HEFEXCL = 0) with ‘year of programme of study not yet completed, but has not failed to complete’ (HQ_COMPY (H16) = 3).

Total widening participation (WP) funding for 2011-12

The difference is calculated by summing the ‘Widening access for students from disadvantaged backgrounds: full-time’,  ‘Widening access for students from disadvantaged backgrounds: part-time’, ‘Widening access and improving provision for disabled students’ amounts in the ‘2011-12 WP allocations based on FTEs from HEIFES10’ report (hWP worksheet), and subtracting from the total of the equivalent amounts in the report on the ‘Re calculated 2011 12 WP allocations based on FTEs from the HEIFES10 re creation’ (WP worksheet).

Percentage of the total original 2011-12 WP funding

The difference in the total WP funding for 2011-12 as a percentage of the total original 2011-12 WP funding is calculated by dividing the difference in the ‘Total widening participation (WP) funding for 2011-12’ by the sum of the ‘Widening access for students from disadvantaged backgrounds: full-time’, ‘Widening access for students from disadvantaged backgrounds: part time’ and ‘Widening access and improving provision for disabled students’ amounts in the ‘2011-12 WP allocations based on FTEs from HEIFES10’ report (hWP worksheet).

Total improving retention (IR) element of the teaching enhancement and student success (TESS) allocation 2011-12

The difference is calculated by summing the ‘Improving retention: full-time’ and ‘Improving retention: part-time’ amounts in the ‘2011-12 improving retention allocation based on FTEs from HEIFES10’ report (hTESS worksheet), and subtracting from the total of the equivalent amounts in the report on the ‘Re-calculated 2011-12 improving retention allocation based on FTEs from the HEIFES10 re-creation’ (TESS worksheet).

Percentage of the total original 2011-12 IR element of the TESS allocation

The difference in the total IR element of the TESS allocation for 2011-12 as a percentage of the total original 2011-12 IR element of the TESS allocation is calculated by dividing the difference in the ‘Total IR element of the teaching enhancement and student success (TESS) allocation 2011-12 based on original HEIFES10’ by the sum of the ‘Improving retention: full-time’ and ‘Improving retention: part-time’ amounts in the ‘2011-12 improving retention allocation based on FTEs from HEIFES10’ report (hTESS worksheet).
