On-the-day Nursery query 2100Q (Spring Census only)

This article guides schools on how to resolve the on-the-day Nursery query 2100Q related to full-time nursery enrolment figures for the Spring Census. It outlines steps to check and amend student enrolment records, particularly focusing on ensuring that the number of full-time nursery pupils aligns with class records, and addresses issues with mixed-year group classes.

Schools need to include enrolment figures for full-time nursery students. Please note that these issues cannot be resolved until on or after Census Day.

Please check: More FT nursery pupils are on roll than the number on nursery class records.

Resolving the query

Go to Students > Enrolment > Academic > Courses > Table View. Make sure that any classes that are for single-year groups have a year group set.

• Mixed-year classes: If you have any classes that have mixed years (eg N1 and N2 students together in one Nursery class), do not assign a year group to the course. The year group column should show blank for this mixed-year class. This will ensure that the class is recorded correctly for School Census.
• If you don't have any mixed-year group classes, you'll need to either amend the students you've set as part-time, or change the numbers of Home Pupils logged for the class.

How to check the figures

You can check the students set as part-time. Go to the Part-Time Students section from the left-hand menu of the census.

Calculate the number of students who are marked as No. You can do this by typing no in the Search box and seeing the total at the bottom of the table, or filtering the table.

To check the student class numbers, go to the Classes section from the left-hand menu of the census. Count up the total number of students marked as Home Pupils in your nursery classes.

The total number of students who are not set to part-time should be less than or equal to the total number of 'Home Pupils' for your Nursery classes. In other words, you should not have more full-time nursery pupils on roll than the number of students marked as not part-time on your nursery class records.
