New Contextualised HE Entry Track datasets and dashboard are now available to download

We are pleased to announce that your institution’s Contextualised HE Entry Track data and accompanying resources are now available to download from the File Store. This exciting new addition to the HEAT Track for the first time offers the opportunity to explore the impact of your outreach activities on access to higher education through the lens of the HEAT Groups, enabling you to control for prior attainment at Key Stage 4 (GCSE) and disadvantage – two of the most important predictors for access to HE.

As part of this new release, members now have access to the following in the File Store:

• Your institution’s Contextualised HE Entry Track Dataset*: Your institution-level dataset, aggregated to Activity Type, Descriptor and Programme Title level, ready for connecting to the Power BI dashboard.
• Contextualised HE Entry Track Power BI Dashboard: A Power BI desktop template to visualise your institution-level dataset.
• Contextualised HE Entry Track User Guide: A comprehensive guide including everything you need to know about this new addition to the HEAT Track. Use this alongside the dashboard, populated with your institution’s dataset, to make the most out of this new addition to the HEAT Track.

* Datasets are available for members who had tracking eligible students who were registered to activity on the database in April 2023. This File Store record can be accessed by Users with the following roles: Lead, Lead Lite, Coordinator, Coordinator Lite, User with Reports.
