Academic records will be maintained normally for a period up to 10 years by Serco, or a partner organisation, from the end of your programme completion, or other period as might be required to meet contractual obligations with a third party organisation (such as DfE or ESFA or other government agency).

We need to keep your records after programme completion to provide a service for post-completion enquiries, e.g. replacement certificates or completion details.
