The DfE have advised that there is an error in the Selected Time specified in the census file. As such it will be necessary to update the Selected Time on the Census Return. This guide discusses how to update the Selected Time and the DfE guidance on which time to use.
Permissions: The minimum permissions required to access the School Census can be found in the Census module from within Config > Setup > Roles & Permissions.

Changing the Selected Time
Once a Census return has been generated it is not possible to update the Selected Time, so it will be necessary to generate a new census return. To do this, go to Modules > Census > School.

Select New.

Enter the correct time in the Selected Time field (see below guidance on what Time to enter), ensure the rest of the information on the page is correct. Click Generate and continue to complete your Census as normal.

DfE Guidance on Times
Please see below guidance from the DfE regarding what time to enter into the Selected Time field.
Please Note – Departmental number refers to the School’s DfE Number.
