HEBP Workshop – 2nd July 2010
Understanding HEFCE Funding
![Page 3: HEBP Workshop – 2 nd July 2010 Understanding HEFCE Funding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d415503460f94a1b269/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
What can HEFCE fund?
• The provision of education and the undertaking of research by
higher education institutions
• The provision of any facilities, and the carrying on of any other
activities, by higher education institutions … for the purpose of or
in connection with education or research
• The provision … by institutions within the further education sector
of prescribed course of higher education.

Reporting of Students to HEFCE -1• HESES – 1st December snapshotThis is an annual survey of higher education institutions about students on recognised higher education courses.
The data:
• provides an early indication of the number of HE students studying in the academic year
• enables HEFCE to monitor the achievement of funding agreement targets
• informs the allocation of teaching funds
![Page 5: HEBP Workshop – 2 nd July 2010 Understanding HEFCE Funding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d415503460f94a1b269/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Reporting of Students to HEFCE -2• HESES – 1st December snapshot
More about the data:
• Students are classified into level of study
• Students are classified as Full Time, Sandwich or Part Time
• Students are allocated to Price Groups (B,C,D)
• An fte is calculated depending on credits taken
• Students are only counted if they will achieve their year of instance in the academic year reported on

ELQs
The University does not receive funding for students studying
for a lower or equivalent level of qualification than the one
they already hold.
For example: A student has a Degree in Basketweaving and
wants to study a Degree in Business Management. This
student would be returned to HEFCE via HESES and HESA as
non-fundable as they would be classed as an ELQ student.
*Some exemptions e.g. FDs, Education Subject Groups, see HESES

New Entrant Controls
In 2009-10, in response to a request from Government, HEFCE
introduced a limit on full-time undergraduate and PGCE
entrants. Its purpose has been to reduce the risk of over-
recruitment that might lead to a transfer of HEFCE grant back
to the Department for Business, Innovation and Skills to meet
consequent unanticipated student support costs.

Reporting of Students to HEFCE• HESA – 31 July snapshotThis is an annual data collection collected by the Higher Education Statistics Agency (HESA)
The data:
• provides an actual out turn of students studying in the academic year 1st August to 31 July of each year
• enables HEFCE to adjust funding based on HESES:HESA variance
• informs an array of outputs e.g. WP income, NSS population, First Destination Data

HEFCE FundingTwo Questions
• Does HEFCE fund student non-completions?
• Does HEFCE fund student completions?
![Page 10: HEBP Workshop – 2 nd July 2010 Understanding HEFCE Funding](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649d415503460f94a1b269/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Completion and non-completion
In order to be counted as a completion, a student must complete all the modules they intended to complete in the year of instance.

Audit of Data in Year
The Academic Registry audit student data in cycle and cascade
reports to FE college contacts weekly:
So as to:
• Monitor in cycle enrolments
• Monitor student withdrawals
• Verify ELQ status
• Verify student module completion
• Inform payment schedules collated by Finance

Withdrawals / Non Completions
• The University does not receive any HEFCE funding for any student who withdraws from the course or does not complete
• The University therefore cannot pay the Colleges for any of these students, where possible adjustments will be made to the franchised instalments in year
• Withdrawals notified after the May instalment will be adjusted for in July• After the completion and submission of the HESA return (October time) a final
reconciliation will be done to account for withdrawals and non-completions
