HEIFES11 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 HEIFES11 re-creation) which we carry out for monitoring purposes. This information is aimed at those colleges responsible for making student data returns.

The 'HEIFES11 re-creation coversheet' is a table provided in the HEIFES11 re-creation workbook.

It includes the following comparisons of differences:

Total contract range grant adjustments for 2011-12
Percentage of total teaching funding for 2011-12
Total ASN grant adjustments
Total student number control adjustments for 2011-12
Total co-funded grant adjustments for 2011-12
Total teaching funding grant adjustments 2011-12
Students identified with 2011-12 undetermined completion status
Illustrative 2012-13 initial phase-out funding (mainstream)
Illustrative 2012-13 initial phase-out funding (co-funded)
Total widening participation (WP) funding for 2012-13
Percentage of the total original 2012-13 WP funding
Total improving retention (IR) element of the teaching enhancement and student success (TESS) allocation 2012-13
Percentage of the total original 2012-13 IR element of the TESS allocation.

Total contract range grant adjustments for 2011-12

The difference is calculated by summing the ‘Contract range holdback’, ‘Consolidated 2010-11 contract range holdback recovered by institution’ in the ‘HEIFES11 grant adjustments’ report (hHBK worksheet) and subtracting from the total of the equivalent amounts in the ‘Provisional grant adjustments based on the HEIFES11 re creation’ (HBK worksheet).

Percentage of total teaching funding for 2011-12

The difference in total contract range grant adjustments for 2011-12 as a percentage of total teaching funding for 2011-12 is calculated by dividing the difference in ‘Total contract range grant adjustments for 2011-12’ by the sum of the ‘2011-12 Total teaching funding’ and taking the absolute value. This value can be found in Table A of the final issue of institutions’ 2011-12 grant tables.

Total ASN grant adjustments

The difference in total ASN grant adjustments is calculated by summing the ‘ASN funding recovered by institution' and ‘ASN funding to be held back from institution’ in the ‘HEIFES11 grant adjustments’ report (hHBK worksheet) and subtracting the sum of the equivalent amounts in the ‘Provisional grant adjustments based on the HEIFES11 re creation’ (HBK worksheet).

Total student number control adjustments for 2011-12

The difference in total student number control adjustments 2011-12 is calculated by summing the '2011-12 Student number control grant adjustment', 'Further reduction for 2010-11 over-recruitment' and ‘Further reduction for 2009-10 over-recruitment’ in the ‘HEIFES11 grant adjustments’ report (hHBK worksheet) and subtracting the sum of the equivalent amounts in the ‘Provisional grant adjustments based on the HEIFES11 re-creation’ (HBK worksheet).

Total co-funded grant adjustments for 2011-12

The difference in total co-funded grant adjustments for 2011-12 is calculated by summing the 'Co-funded core funding to be held back from institution', ' Co-funded funding recovered by institution' and 'Co-funded ASN funding to be held back from institution' in the 'HEIFES11 grant adjustments report' (hHBK worksheet) and subtracting the difference from the sum of the equivalent amounts in the ‘Report on adjustments to grant for 2011-12 using the HEIFES11 re-creation’ (HBK worksheet).

Total teaching funding grant adjustments 2011-12

The difference in total teaching funding grant adjustments 2011-12 is calculated by summing the difference in ‘Total contract range grant adjustments for 2011-12’, difference in ‘Total ASN grant adjustments’ and difference in ‘Total student number control adjustments for 2011-12’.

Students identified with 2011-12 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’ (FUNDCOMP = 3).

Illustrative 2012-13 initial phase-out funding (mainstream)

The difference in total illustrative 2012-13 initial phase out funding (mainstream) is calculated by subtracting the total 'Initial phase-out funding 2012-13' in the 'Calculation of 2011-12 funding rates and initial phase-out funding for mainstream FTEs' (hMST worksheet) from the equivalent amount in the ‘Calculation of 2011-12 funding rates and initial phase-out funding for mainstream FTEs using HEIFES re-creation’ (MST worksheet).

Illustrative 2012-13 initial phase-out funding (co-funded)

The difference in total illustrative 2012-13 initial phase-out funding (co-funded) is calculated by subtracting the total 'Initial phase-out funding 2012-13' in the 'Calculation of 2011-12 funding rates and initial phase-out funding for co-funded FTEs' (hCOF worksheet) from the equivalent amount in the ‘Recalculation of 2011-12 funding rates and initial phase-out funding for co-funded FTEs’ (COF worksheet).

Total widening participation (WP) funding for 2012-13

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 ‘2012-13 WP allocations based on FTEs from HEIFES11’ report (hWP worksheet), and subtracting from the total of the equivalent amounts in the report on the ‘Re-calculated 2012-13 WP allocations based on FTEs from the HEIFES11 re creation’ (WP worksheet).

Percentage of the total original 2012-13 WP funding

The difference in the total WP funding for 2012-13 as a percentage of the total original 2012-13 WP funding is calculated by dividing the difference in the ‘Total widening participation (WP) funding for 2012-13’ 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 ‘2012-13 WP allocations based on FTEs from HEIFES11’ report (hWP worksheet).

Total improving retention (IR) element of the teaching enhancement and student success (TESS) allocation 2012-13

The difference is calculated by summing the ‘Improving retention: full-time’ and ‘Improving retention: part-time’ amounts in the ‘2012-13 improving retention allocation based on FTEs from HEIFES11’ report (hTESS worksheet), and subtracting from the total of the equivalent amounts in the report on the ‘Re-calculated 2012-13 improving retention allocation based on FTEs from the HEIFES11 re-creation’ (TESS worksheet).

Percentage of the total original 2012-13 IR element of the TESS allocation

The difference in the total IR element of the TESS allocation for 2012-13 as a percentage of the total original 2012-13 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 2012-13 based on original HEIFES11’ by the sum of the ‘Improving retention: full-time’ and ‘Improving retention: part-time’ amounts in the ‘2012-13 improving retention allocation based on FTEs from HEIFES11’ report (hTESS worksheet).
