FRM30: Students with more than 40 planned hours a week
This has been flagged because it is worth checking. It may be entirely correct. Investigate before assuming anything is wrong.
Official description
While there is no minimum number of hours that a study programme must have, planned hours must not exceed 40 hours per week for any student. Study programme planned hours reflect the hours planned for the academic year whereas T Level planned hours are recorded for the length of the T Level programme.
