Destination and progression

The ILR record of what a learner went on to do after their learning.

In full

Destination and progression records capture what a learner did next, such as employment or further study. They support outcome-based funding in some streams and progression reporting in others.

For streams funded partly on outcomes, these records carry money and need the same evidence discipline as any other funded field.

Where this comes up

scenario

A bootcamp outcome is achieved but never recorded

A learner gets a job after a Skills Bootcamp. Nobody records it, and the outcome milestone is not claimed.

module

The anatomy of the ILR

What is actually inside the Individualised Learner Record: the entities, how they nest, and which fields carry the funding.

diagnostic

16 to 19 study programmes with planned learning hours but no regulated qualifications

Timetabled hours for non-qualification activity should be recorded in the Planned employability, enrichment, and pastoral hours field. In most cases, young people should be enrolled in learning that leads to: an external certificate offered by a regulated awarding organisation and approved on the DfE list of qualifications approved for funding 14 to 19 a substantial work placement to prepare them for progression to an apprenticeship or other employment a T Level

diagnostic

Proportion of planned employment, enrichment and pastoral (EEP) hours is 50% or more of total planned hours

In most cases, young people should be enrolled either in learning that leads to: an external certificate offered by a regulated awarding organisation and approved on the DfE list of qualifications approved for funding 14 to 19 a substantial work placement to prepare them for progression to an apprenticeship or other employment a T Level We have excluded students who have self-declared any learning difficulties and disabilities (LDD) or health problems or have been reported as requiring additional support.

diagnostic

The same learner appears twice

One person has been recorded twice, usually with two different learner reference numbers, and sometimes with two different ULNs. The system treats them as two people.
