Collaborative Outreach. The University was the lead advocate with the Westminster Group of Associate Colleges in discussions with HEFCE for HND and Foundation Degree (FD) students progressing to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ top-up to honours programmes to be excluded from the quota system. In 2012 HEFCE confirmed that direct entrants from these studies would not be included in Student Number Control (SNC) targets. This ensures parity with new fee regime entrants with high grades by ensuring parallel opportunity for study places with Level 4 entrants who have achieved AAB or ABB equivalence. This has facilitated collaborative planning for HND and FD within the Westminster Group, for 5 -10 students per annum to be offered guaranteed places on STEM courses subject to specified levels of achievement on entry to ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇, and exit from Level 5. The progression agreement template initiated by Linking London provides the formal agreement by which these extended pathways will be administered and monitored. As HEFCE research has shown some 22% of young progressors to HE within FE Colleges were from low participation neighbourhoods in 2009-
