Annual data return

Each year, as a condition of Associate status and the direct / indirect support we provide, all Associates are required to complete and submit an annual data return

We report on the collective work of our hub to Arts Council England / DfE. This data forms part of  the ‘currency’ for the funding we receive.

Data gathering usually takes place between late January and July.

You can provide the data using an online form.

Whilst the form can look a little daunting when you first see it, the reality is that most Associates have only 1 or 2 sections to complete. Guidance is provided below and we can provide additional support with the process if needed.
