Request

Many thanks for supplying this information, which is certainly helpful in identifying the scale of the funding, and which Universities students are using TDAE the most.

We have met with 3 Universities so far, including WSIHE in Chichester (West Sussex Institute of Higher Education) who indicated that they have a typical annual cohort of around 30-40 (30 UG’s, and up to 10 PG’s), so they typically have 90-120 students going on Placement each year. They are not listed on your spreadsheet, which means that either none at all have made a TDAE claim (which would be surprising), or there was some other reason that they don’t appear, such as their specific University status perhaps? Would you be so kind as to check again for this institution please?

Response

I can confirm that the NHSBSA holds the information you have requested and a copy of the information is attached.

Due to an issue with the background coding structure, the payments for the University of Chichester were incorrectly allocated to a different HEI. This has now been amended.
