    Exceptions

    • If the placement type is mapped to an external code which is not in the valid range of placement categories (i.e. an external code starting with a W), its category cannot be derived and One doesn’t count the student in any Questions.
    • If more than one placement is collected, One counts the placement record for the base marked as the student’s registered base (STUD_HIST.REG_BASE) and no exception message is generated.
    If none of the placements are marked as the student’s registered base, then the placement with the earliest start date is counted. One generates exception message SEN2_008 for that student for the placement category collected.
  3. Where an active statement or EHCP placement record does not exist on the Return Date:
    If an active statement as at the Return Date (or) active EHC Plan as at the Return Date is found to have no associated placement, One identifies whether this record should be counted for question 1.2a.iii.a:
    • The record is counted for 1.2a.iii.a, if the student associated with the statement or EHCP has an Active Permanent Exclusion Record and has not been placed since their Date Off Roll (DOR).

If you are recording a placement record for a student that is not in an educational setting (e.g. they are NEET or awaiting provision), then a dummy base will need to be created to save the placement record.
