The Learner Entry Tool is for further education providers who need to return ILR information for up to 500 learners but don’t have a data management system. You can download the ILR Learner Entry Tool for free. Using it is optional. It’s designed to make putting your file together in the correct format and with the right information easier. You must download the right version for the academic year you’re submitting data for. If you’re having problems with the tool, check the known issues document to see if the ESFA are experiencing any issues and what it’s doing to solve them. Click here for more.
