England SWF Census Query 6260Q

In this guide, we will show you how to resolve the School Workforce Census Query 6260Q.

For further guidance on the SWF Census see here.

DfE Validation

6260Q


If, for a staff member there exists any <ContractOrServiceGroup>, where <ContractEnd> not present or else equal to or after <ReferenceDate> and where at least one Role identifier in that <ContractOrServiceGroup> = SENC, then at least one <QualificationSubject> should be equal to Z201 – SEN – SENCOSENCOs should have a NASENCO qualification unless they had been practicing in that role since before 1 September 2008.

Navigate to the SENCO staff member’s record and click the left hand Qualifications tab

Qualifications

There are two methods available for adding the NASENCO Qualification to staff members. Please see: How to add NASENCO Qualification.

If the Query does not clear but you are absolutely certain that all the data in your system is correct, you will need to upload a Return Level Note to Collect when you submit your Census.

IMPORTANT in order for the resolved error/query to be removed from the list of errors/queries you would need to generate a new Census return and remember to use save & validate for the errors/queries to update/clear.
