Hertfordshire County Councilwww.hertsdirect.org
Forecast Methodology
• Forecasts are based on 22 education planning areas (secondary)
• These are sub divided into primary planning areas
• Updated data sets are imported into the forecasting system in April each year
• From these data sets, the annual pupil forecasts are produced
Hertfordshire County Councilwww.hertsdirect.org
Annual Data Imports
• Actual Pupil Numbers (PLASC) - Unique pupil number, year group, their school now and last year.
• GP Registrations (Health Authority) - Postcodes and dates of birth
• New Housing Completions Predictions (Environment Department Database)
• Postcode file
• School data
